Nigeria’s representatives in the 2019/2020 CAF Confederation Cup Enyimba FC and Enugu Rangers will have to wait till Tuesday 12, November to discover their group stage opponents after CAF postponed Sunday’s draws.

A statement by the continental football governing body announced that group stage draws originally scheduled for Sunday, 10 November would now hold next Tuesday by 12pm Egyptian time (11am in Nigeria) at the CAF headquarters in Cairo, Egypt.

Enyimba qualified for the group stage for the third time in their history with a 4-1 aggregate win over South African first division side TS Galaxy who they beat home and away while Rangers beat Togolese champions 1-0 in the second leg of their playoff tie to qualify 2-2 on away goals.

Both teams will join fourteen other qualified teams in the pot for the group stage draws as they bid to become the first Nigerian side to lift the trophy in its current guise.

All sixteen qualified teams will be divided into four groups of four teams each for the group phase of the second-tier club championship.

The seeded draw will divide the 16 survivors from three qualifying rounds into four groups with the winners and runners-up progressing to the quarter-finals.
