The Tanzanian champions will travel south for the first leg tie that is expected to be played between May 14 and 15 before the second leg encounter to be hosted between May 21 and 22.
Simba had an impressive run in the group stages and topped a tough pool that included African champions Al Ahly, AS Vita Club of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Al Merrikh of Sudan.
They finished the group engagements with four wins, one defeat, and a draw and topped the pool with 13 points; two more than the reigning champions, the Red Devils.
Simba will hope to maintain the solidity they showed in the group stages where they only conceded two goals and kept four clean sheets as goalkeepers Aishi Manula and Beno Kakolanya were used between the sticks.

“All the teams in the competition are strong and we have a lot of respect for Kaizer Chiefs but because we are very ambitious and we also want to reach far in this competition, we are ready to play very well against [Chiefs] and reach our target,” Da Rosa told Simba Online TV a few hours after the draw that was held in Cairo, Egypt.
“It is going to be a very tough match but we have the time to prepare well as our target is to go as far as we can but firstly, we have to focus on the quarter-final clash and we know it will not be easy, but with our plans and mission and targets we set earlier, we are ready to go far in this competition.”
