Zanaco face two-time African champions Enyimba of Nigeria in the pre-group stage of the CAF Confederations Cup in July.
The draws conducted today in Cairo will see Zanaco host Enyimba on July 17 in the first leg in Lusaka.
Zanaco will later travel to Aba to play Enyimba in the second leg during the weekend of July 31-August 1 to decide which side goes through to the group stage that kicks off in October.
Winner over both legs will advance to Group B of the Confederations Cup.
Other teams battling for a place in Group B will be winners of the CS Sfaxien of Tunisia versus Petro Atletico of Angola, SuperSport of South Africa versus FUS of Morocco, El Hodoud (Egypt) versus Gaborone United (Botswana) and the winner between CRB of Algeria and Mali’s Djoliba.
Meanwhile, this will be the second time Enyimba will be playing a Zambian opponent after eliminated Red Arrows 9-1 on aggregate in the 2005 CAF Champions League.
Enyimba won 3-0 away in Aba before crashing Arrows 6-1 in Lusaka to advance to the group stage of the Champions League.

ZANACO should have played one of their postponed league gamez yesterday so az to reduce the back-log.

Very difficult game for Zanaco. Enyimba is a very good opposition and Zanaco must prepare adequately for this game.
Come Sensational its all to play for when the odds are against us.
