The 2018 CAF Champions League (officially the 2018 Total CAF Champions League for sponsorship reasons)[1] was the 54th edition of Africa's premier club football tournament organized by the Confederation of African Football (CAF), and the 22nd edition under the current CAF Champions League title.

Espérance de Tunis won the title for the third time, defeating Al Ahly in the final, and qualified as the CAF representative at the 2018 FIFA Club World Cup in the United Arab Emirates, and also earned the right to play against the winners of the 2018 CAF Confederation Cup, Raja Casablanca, in the 2019 CAF Super Cup.[2]

Wydad AC were the defending champions, but were eliminated in the quarter-finals by ES Sétif.
