- Sierra Leone Champions Bo Rangers will kick off their CAF Champions League campaign against Neighbours Liberian side LISCR FC in the first round of preliminary next month.
The Southern Province side from Sierra Leone will host the first leg before travelling to the Liberian capital for a place in the next round.
CAF officials conducted the draw on Tuesday, 25 July 2023, in Cairo at the CAF Headquarters.
The tie winner over two legs will tackle Algeria side CR Belouizdad in the second round of the continental competition.
Bo Rangers was eliminated by Algerian giants CR Belouizdad in their maiden continental appearance 3-0 on aggregate last September following a goalless first-leg encounter in the Liberian capital.
Having engraved their name in the Sierra Leone top-flight history books after a back-to-back title, they will be hopeful to relive that moment this time on the continental stage.
Egypt’s Al Ahly are the current holders of the TotalEnergies CAF Champions League after their fiercely contested victory over Morocco’s Wydad Casablanca.
