Ikorodu City are seeking CAF Confederation Cup slots from two fronts – the NPFL League and the President Federation Cup.
Three of the semi-finalists of the President Federation Cup are from the elite division of the Nigeria football league, the NPFL. That is the outcome of the quarter-final duels played at the weekend.
The only lower division sides are Abakaliki FC of Ebonyi State, who beat NPFL sides, Nasarawa United, on penalties after a 1-1 draw.
Abakaliki FC will now face Ikorodu City in the semi-finals. The Lagos club is chasing a ticket for the CAF Confederation Cup from two fronts.
They are currently fourth on the log of the NPFL, seeking a third position that will earn them the ticket to the continent.
Should they also win the President Federation Cup, they will also qualify for the Confederation Cup.
