The match which will hold on Saturday in the city of Dakar is the first ever contest between the two clubs.

Kano Pillars qualified to represent Nigeria in the CAF second tier club competition as holders of the Aiteo Cup which they won in 2019.

Although endowed more than their hosts, Pillars away form in recent continental engagements has been less than convincing which calls for cautious optimism from their teeming fans.
