The Godswill Akpabio Stadium in Uyo will host the anticipated Federation Cup Round of 64 battle between CAF Confederation Cup quarter-finalists Rivers United and two-time CAF Champions League winners Enyimba next Wednesday.

Rivers United are the current champions of Nigeria’s elite league, and have one of the teams from where they were formed – Dolphins FC – lifting the FA Cup four times – 2001, 2004, 2006 and 2007.

Enyimba are the most successful Nigerian club having been the sole winners of the CAF Champions League (2003 and 2004) as well as being Nigeria’s only champions and first back-to-back winners of the CAF Super Cup – 2003 and 2004.
