The battle for this year’s AITEO Cup final and a place in the CAF Confederation Cup will continue today when Bayelsa and Rivers United trade-tackle in the South-south derby at the Agege Stadium, Lagos.
Speaking ahead of the crucial semifinal clash, the Technical Adviser of the club, Diepreye Teibowei, said his boys are not afraid of Rivers United, saying their victories against Rangers and Lobi Stars in the tournament are indicators that they are prepared to face any team.According to him, the return of some key players into the squad has also strengthened the side.
On paper, Rivers United may be expected to overcome neighbours Bayelsa United when both teams clash in today’s semifinal in Lagos, but the experienced tactician said he was not taking anything for granted, especially after the exploits of the Yenagoa-based side in the competition this season.
