Sierra Leone CAF Confederation Cup representative FC Kallon is set to open their preliminary continental campaign against Niger’s side AS Douanes next month.
The Cavaliers learned of their opponents after the conclusion of the CAF inter-club draw for the 2023-24 campaign was conducted on Tuesday, July 25, 2023, at the CAF headquarters in the Egyptian capital city, Cairo.
FC Kallon progressed to the second stage of the competition last season when they eliminated Buffles de Borgou of Benin 4-0 on aggregates but suffered a heavy defeat to the Egyptian side FC Future over the two legs.
The winner of the tie will face either Dreams FC from Ghana or Milo FC de Kankan of Guinea, both teams making their debut in the continental stage.
The first preliminary round is scheduled to take place from 18 to 20 August for the first-leg matches and 25 to 27 August for the second-leg encounters.
The second preliminary will come off 15 to 17 September for the first leg games, and the returning fixtures are from September 19 to October.
