Enyimba coach Fatai Osho says he’s aware Al Merrikh is a difficult team to beat, but is confident the team will triumph.
The two times CAF Champions League winners will slug it out with the Sudanese side in the first-leg of the final qualifying round of the competition on Wednesday.
Speaking ahead of the game, Osho described Al Merrikh as a dangerous opponent.
“It won’t come easy, we’re quite aware of that. Al Merrikh – they are a very good side, a well-known team in Africa, just like Enyimba.
“So, it’s going to be a very tough battle and we are quite aware of this and we’re really preparing towards it,” he told busybuddiesng.
Enyimba will be hoping to be second time lucky against a Sudanese opponent in the competition, after the were knocked out by Al Hilal at this same stage last year.
