This is contrary to the rather the general expectation of the initially scheduled Moshood Abiola Stadium in Abuja as the venue for the tie.

The first leg of the preliminary round encounter, slated for next weekend, has been moved due to CAF's failure to approve the Abuja stadium.

The reverse fixture is scheduled to take place in Cotonou on August 25, with the winner advancing to face RS Berkane of Morocco in the second preliminary round.

The venue change may impact the team's preparations, but El-Kanemi Warriors will be eager to secure a positive result in the first leg to take momentum into the second leg.
