Ethiopian premier league champions St. George will have to battle it out with Seychelles champions ‘Cote D’or’ in the Total CAF champions league after the two sides were drawn together while Defence force will face Y.O.S.A from Cameroon in the CAF confederation cup.

This is going to be the second time in a row that the Martin Nooji trained side face Seychelles opposition in the preliminary stages after they bungled out St. Michel 4:1 in aggregate before CAF confederation cup champions T.P Mazembe cut short their champions league dream last year.

The horsemen who lie at the Summit of the league, kickoff their continental campaign away to Cote Dor in the Seychelles islands from the 10th to 12th February at the Amitie stadium with the return leg scheduled from the 17th to 19th February either in Hawassa or Addis-Ababa.

Defence forces who are currently 7th in the league standings will welcome Y.O.S.A in the first leg encounter before going away to Cameroon.
