Kwara United head coach Tunde Sanni has expressed confidence ahead of his side’s CAF Confederation Cup showdown with Ghanaian giants Asante Kotoko.
The two teams meet in the first leg on Sunday, September 21, 2025, at the Accra Sports Stadium, before the reverse fixture a week later in Ilorin, Nigeria.
Speaking to Akoma 87.9 FM, Sanni dismissed suggestions that Kotoko’s pedigree gives them a significant edge.
“We are preparing very well and are confident of beating Kotoko, provided there is fair officiating.
“Ghana is not the best football nation in Africa, so the fact that Kotoko have national team players in their squad does not put fear in us. We also have national team players, even some on our bench,” he said.
“We want to go far in this competition. This season, we are participating in three trophies, and our target is to win all of them, including the CAF Confederation Cup,” he added.
