TP Mazembe - Sanfrecce Hiroshima, Sunday 13 December 2015 11:30 CET
Last week Sanfrecce Hiroshima has won the Japanese J-league for the 8th time in a tense final against Gamba Osaka. After that exciting match, they also won the opener against Auckland City FC at the FIFA Club World Cup. Now the Japanese champions will like to continue their winning streak against Tout Puissant Mazembe in the last quarter-final of the day at the Nagai stadium in Osaka from 11.30CET. African football is on a high all these years, that is a fact. But over here the Congolese club will have no chance to oppose the Japanese champions and have to overcome the fanatical and noisy home crowd who will be their 12th player.
Club America - Guangzhou Evergrande FC., Sunday 13 December 2015 08:00 CET
The first match on Sunday sees the CONCACAF champion entertain the Asian counterparts Guangzhou Evergrande FC. As it looks like, Mexican players should easily win this game as they are favorites in this game. But knowing the strength of the Chinese champions and under the helm of Brazilian coach Luiz Felipe Scolari, the South China Tigers will pull up the surprise and qualify for the semi-finals where there awaits little difficult and mighty FC Barcelona from Spain.
