TP Mazembe suffered a substantial blow ahead of their crucial CAF Champions League road game against CR Belouizdad in Algeria with news that several players would not be able to travel. Thomas Ulimwengu, Joseph Ochaya and starting goalkeeper Sylvain Gbohouo are among the important names who will be unavailable due to not getting back in time from international duty to travel with the Ravens squad. It could be decisive for the ambitious Congolese club, who will be eliminated with a defeat in Algeria.
