Yanga is already in Uyo City where the game against Rivers United will be played on Sunday
It is an important game of the first leg of the quarter-final of the CAF Confederation Cup
Yanga has gone to Nigeria with the memory of losing both matches of the preliminary stage of the Champions League against Rivers United in 2021
So the Citizens are in Nigeria with only one mission, to seek victory to put themselves in a good position to reach the semi-finals as the second 90 minutes will be concluded at the Benjamin Mkapa stadium, April 30th
Yanga has shown great quality in the group stage, emerging as the leader of group D after reaching 13 points
The hopes of the Citizens are carried by that quality because if Yanga plays as they did in their next five matches after losing against US Monastir, they have a good chance to eliminate Rivers United
Rivers United finished second in Group B with 10 points behind ASEC Mimosas, and they showed excellence in their matches, especially at home
All teams have changed; like Yanga, even Rivers United, the team they have now is not same as they had in 2021
Yanga Assistant coach Cedric Kaze said that they are aware of the quality of Rivers United but Yanga also has its own quality so they are ready to face them in the game that will be played on Sunday, at 4 pm at the Godswill Akpabio International stadium.
