In a strategic move, Nigerian champions Rangers have opted to play their home games in the CAF Champions League at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo. This decision comes after their home venue, Nnamdi Azikiwe Stadium in Enugu, failed to meet CAF's approval.
The Flying Antelopes, will now utilize the state-of-the-art facilities at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium, nicknamed the "Nest of Champions." This change of venue ensures that the team can compete at the highest level, meeting the stringent requirements set by CAF.
Rangers are set to face Union Sportive Zilimadjou of Comoros in the first preliminary round tie of the competition. With their new home ground in Uyo, the team is poised to deliver impressive performances and make a strong impact in the tournament.
As the current champions of the Nigeria Premier Football League, Rangers are eager to build on their success and make a mark in the CAF Champions League. Their recent triumph in the domestic league has set the tone for their continental campaign.
