Esperance defeated Wydad Casablanca last year to book their place in the Super Cup by winning the Caf Champions League, while Zamalek beat RS Berkane to win the Caf Confederation Cup title.
The 2020 Caf Super Cup will be the 28th edition of the event, an annual football match in Africa organised by the Confederation of African Football (Caf), between the winners of the previous season’s two Caf club competitions, the Caf Champions League and the Caf Confederation Cup.
The match will be played in Qatar at the Doha-Thani Bin Jassim Stadium for the second season in a row, after they signed a three-year agreement with Caf.
