Zamalek's CAF Champions League round of 16 opponents will be Nkana Red Devils after the Zambians claimed a hard-fought berth.

After a disappointing 2-2 first-leg home draw with Kampala City, the Zambian champions won 2-1 in Uganda to qualify.

Zamalek, who also had a difficult task beating Angola's Kabuscorp 1-0 on aggregate, are set for their sixth meeting against Nkana.

Both teams clashed in 1984, 1987, 1994 and 2002 in the Champions League and once in the 2001 Cup Winners Cup.

Zamalek turned out as winners in all ties, although they never managed to beat the Zambians away.

Defending champions Ahli will take on Tanzania's Red Devils on Sunday, hoping they can overturn their 1-0 first-leg loss.
