Enyimba FC coach Fatai Osho expects a tough match when Nigerian club faces Orlando Pirates in a CAF cup group match at the Orlando Stadium on Wednesday.
Eyimba are top of the Group A standings after beating Libyan side Al-Ahly 2-1, while Pirates drew with ES Setif of Algeria in Ghana in the first group matches played on Wednesday last week.
“We’re happy with the result we got in the last game against a very good team (Al-Ahly), said Osho in a media briefing in Johannesburg. “We’re expecting the same from Orlando Pirates and we know them very well, as we do watch the South African league‚”
“Pirates have a lot of brilliant players but I won’t be mentioning any names. As a team they’re more of a threat than individual players. They’re very good in the movements off the ball and their transition is superb.”
Eyimba are on a seven-match unbeaten run in all competitions and we hope their game against Orlando pirates will be the eight.
