Reigning Nigerian champions, Enyimba International of Aba, has gotten the nod to host their first preliminary round return leg against Al Ahli Benghazi at the Aba Township Stadium.

Enyimba suffered a 4-3 defeat in the first leg last weekend and the nine-time Nigeria Professional Football League champions need to score a goal without conceding to seal a place in the next round.

Finidi Georges side will bank on the support of their home fans in Aba to unsettle the North African side.
