Kwara United will take on Sunshine Stars in a pre-season friendly at the Kwara State Sports Complex on Wednesday.
Both teams will use the game as part of their preparation for the 2023/24 Nigeria Professional Football League season.
Kwara United will be returning to their home ground for the first time in two years.
The ground has underwent renovation and now has a natural grass surface, PROMPT NEWS reports.
The match against Sunshine will also be used to experiment crowd control, match coverage, especially with the GTI coverage system, security pattern and observance of other NPFL protocols, ahead of the team’s first home match against Abia Warriors.
Kwara United FC had earlier played Sunshine Stars in Ijebu-Ode, where they also played two other friendly matches, before their participation in the 2023 ValueJet Pre-Season Tournament in Ikenne, where they lost out at the semi-final stage. READ ALSO:
