Dreams FC is embarking on a crucial journey to Liberia as they prepare to face FC Kallon in the second leg of the second preliminary round of the CAF Confederation Cup this Saturday afternoon. The ‘Still Believe’ outfit comes into this match with a 2-1 victory in the first leg, held at the Accra Sports Stadium two weeks ago.
For Dreams FC, the dream of reaching the group stage of this prestigious competition is within reach, and they are determined to achieve this feat in their debut season. Their unbeaten streak in the Confederation Cup, which includes a 3-2 aggregate win over Guinean side Milo FC de Kankan in the first preliminary round, has bolstered their confidence.
On the other side, FC Kallon is also in pursuit of their first-ever participation in the Confederation Cup group stage. The Sierra Leonean club will host Dreams FC at the Samuel Kanyon Doe Stadium in Monrovia, Liberia, with hopes of making history. Notably, no Sierra Leonean club has reached the group stage of this continental competition since its inception in 2004.
The stage is set for a historic showdown on Saturday, with the kickoff scheduled at 16:00 GMT. FC Kallon enters the game with mixed recent domestic form, having registered back-to-back draws, including a 1-1 result against Invincible Eleven and a 2-2 draw with Freeport FC.
As the two teams clash in Liberia, football enthusiasts and supporters of Dreams FC will be eagerly watching, hoping that their ‘Still Believe’ spirit can propel them to a remarkable achievement in the CAF Confederation Cup.
