Moroccan referee Samir Guezzaz has been appointed as the centre man for the 2018/2019 CAF Confederation playoff first leg tie between Coton Sport and Asante Kotoko in Yaounde.

In February this year, Guezzaz officiated the match involving a Ghanaian club when Aduana Stars travelled to Egypt to play Libyan side Al Tahhady in last season's CAF Champions League qualifying round.

Lahcen Azgaou and Youssef Mabrouk will support him on the lines.

The match will be played at the Stade Militaire in the Cameroonian capital Yaounde on 13 January, 2018.
