Lobi Stars are bad travelers on the continent but ahead of Today’s CAF Champions League preliminary round qualifier against UMS de Loum, but defender Ebube Duru insists the current team are out to right their own history.
On Wednesday, the Nigerian league winners will return to the Champions league since the turn of the millennium when they reached the group stage.
However, in their last four away matches, Lobi failed to pick a win; casting doubts on their form.
Per OptaNigeria: 4 – Lobi Stars lost each of their last 4 away matches on the continent. Worry. #USMLOB #CAFCL

In a chat with Brila.net Duru says the expect a tough fight their host, but insists they are equally prepared and determined to get a good result, preferably a win.
‘I’ll say with our preparation so far; though USM de Loum is a strong opponent, we are going out there for a win.
‘If we stick to our plans and the instruction of the Coach we will come out with a victory.’
