The Confederation of African Football (CAF) will conduct the draws for both the Champions League and Confederation Cup on May 15, a statement from the continental body said on Monday.
The draws, which will hold at CAF’s headquarters in Egypt, will put teams which have qualified for the next stage of the inter-club competition into groups.
The final of the Orange CAF Champions League will be played between November 2 and November 4, 2012 for the first leg, and between November 9 and November 11, 2012 for the second leg.
The champion of this competition will represent Africa in the FIFA World Cup in Japan 2012.
The Esperance Sportive de Tunis are the current champions of the Orange CAF Champions League and MAS of Fes won the 2011 edition of the Orange CAF Confederation Cup.
Before the draw, the CAF Disciplinary Board; the CAF Organising Committee for the Inter-Clubs Competitions; the Referees’ Committee; and the Executive Committee will hold their respective meetings to examine, among other issues, reports on matches being played since the beginning of the year.
