Nigeria’s representatives in the CAF Confederation Cup Enugu Rangers, will this Saturday battle AS Pelican of Gabon in their first game of the competition this season.

The Flying Antelopes were drawn bye in the first round, but engaged in series of tune up games in Nigeria before traveling to Gabon on Thursday for the showdown.

Rangers had a feel of the turf in Libreville yesterday and will hope for a good outing against their Gabonese hosts.
