Carling Knockout Cup kicks off as Clubs return from African campaigns

Following a busy weekend of CAF Champions League and Confederation Cup fixtures across Africa, the focus of the domestic season shifts to the start of the Carling Knockout Cup.

The fourth edition featuring the 16 Betway Premiership Clubs gets under way this weekend with some mouthwatering fixtures.

However, this competition comes at a time when some clubs are already confronted with fixture congestion, and they’ll have to juggle carefully to keep all the balls in the air.
