Known previously as Hugo Chávez Stadium, the stadium is a 10,000-capacity facility with an artificial turf.

Both countries will do a Matchday 3 battle at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium, Uyo on Friday, 11^th October, before the clash in the city at the edge of the Mediterranean Sea on Tuesday, 15^th October.

While the match in Uyo will kick off at 5pm, the battle in Benina will commence at 8pm Nigeria time.

Libya remain bottom of Group D after two rounds of matches, following a 1-1 at home to Rwanda (a game that was played at the Tripoli International Stadium) and a 1-2 loss to the Cheetahs of Benin Republic in Abidjan.

Nigeria top the pool with four points, after a 3-0 spanking of Benin Republic in Uyo on Matchday 1 and a scoreless draw with Rwanda’s Amavubi in Kigali on Matchday 2.
