Initially slated for Saturday at the Remo Stars Stadium in Ikenne, the fixture will now be held at the MKO Abiola Sports Arena in Abeokuta, following a late schedule adjustment.

The rescheduling became necessary due to the delayed arrival of the Cameroonian team, who are expected to land in Nigeria on Saturday.
