Ahead of the round of 16 match in the 2024 President Federation Cup, Abia Warriors Football Club of Umuahia has arrived in Ogun State to prepare for the epic encounter with fellow Premier League campaigners, Kwara United of Ilorin.


The Pride of Abia had a chance to experience the Remo Stars Stadium in Ikenne, the venue of the match, while the team captain, Augustine Njoku, is confident of a favorable outcome.


"Since the FA Cup (President Federation Cup) started, we've been playing against lower division teams, and now it's time to play against a fellow Premier League side. It's going to be a very big game for us, and I believe we'll emerge victorious and advance to the quarterfinals," the former national U-20 wing-back said.


Regarding the possible threat posed by his former Abia Warriors teammates who are now on the payroll of Kwara United, Njoku sees it as a mere reunion and nothing more.


"It's a good thing too, I can say that's part of football. In football, your teammate today can equally be your opponent tomorrow; that's how football is. It's a good thing. It's going to be a kind of reunion between us and them because they left in the mid-season of this current season to join Kwara United, and since then, we've not seen each other.


"I know they will provide some information about our team to their new employers, but I believe our team has improved much more than when they left. So, it's going to be a reunion between us and them, and it will be great to see them again."


The match will take place at the Remo Stars Stadium in Ikenne.
