Gaborone United boss David Bright knows nothing about his team's rivals in the CAF Confederation Cup round of 16 Harras Hodoud but expects pulsating clashes with the Alexandrian side.

Hodoud, who are looking to be the first Egyptian team to win Africa's secondary competition, overcame Ethiopia's Banks and Simba of Tanzania in their first two African contests this season.

Bright seemingly didn't watch any of the military side's previous matches in the Confederation Cup but is aware of the Egyptian national team's caliber and therefore expects a stern challenge.

"I don't have much information on them and I don't know much of their strength," Bright told CAF's official website.

"But looking at the level of the football played by the Egyptian national team, I expect a very tough match.

"The result against Simba also shows they are a strong team."

Batswana's Gaborone will host Hodoud in the round of 16 first leg on July 17th. Their second meeting will be played in Alexandria a fortnight later.
