Al Ahly Tripoli faces Welwalo Adigrat this Saturday, October 24, 2026, at the International Stadium of Tripoli for the return leg of the second preliminary round of the CAF Confederation Cup. After a commanding 4-0 victory in the first leg in Ethiopia, the Libyan club approaches this match with a comfortable margin and is close to qualifying for the group stage.
In the first match, Al Ahly Tripoli outclassed their opponent with goals from Al-Lafi, Togai, Al-Suwaidi, and Al-Mirimi. This away victory puts the Libyans in a favorable position as they return to their home crowd. A loss by three goals would still allow them to qualify, while a win or draw would confirm their dominance over the two matches.
For Welwalo Adigrat, the task looks particularly daunting. The Ethiopian club must overcome a four-goal deficit to hope to continue their continental journey. They will need to be much more effective in attack while ensuring they do not leave spaces for a Libyan team that scored four times in the first leg. Meanwhile, Al Ahly Tripoli will look to manage their lead without jeopardizing their qualification.
The kickoff is scheduled for 17:00 GMT, or 19:00 in Libya. At the end of this match, the winner of this two-legged tie will secure their place in the next stage of the competition.
