Harrison Afful believes his side Esperance will sneak past Orlando Pirates in the semi-final  CAF Champions League return leg in Tunis on Saturday.

Afful is seeking his fourth appearance in the final since joining the club from Ghanaian side Asante Kotoko.

The Ghana international played full-throttle in the 0-0 draw in the first leg a fortnight ago.

He is expected to start as a right-winger in Maher Kanzari's side tonight at the Rades stadium.

"We have a team capable of beating any team and that is what we are going to do on Saturday," Afful told GHANASoccernet.com

"The first leg result is gone and the clash looks tricky because if they get a scoring draw, we are out. We will fight hard."

The winner of this tie will meet either champions Al Ahli or CotonSport in this year’s Champions League final.

Espreance probable line-up:

Ben Cherifia - Derbali, Chammam (c) Dhaouadi, Ben-Mansour Ragued, Aouadhi-Afful, Belaïli, Darragi - Ndjeng
