Vanuatu’s Malampa Revivors FC is expected to play in front of a packed stadium when it takes on Fiji’s Lautoka FC in the first round of OFC Champions League Group B clash, today.
More than 5,000 people are expected at Luganville Soccer City Stadium as Malampa debut as an OFC Champions League host.
The hometown Revivors have never made the quarter-finals of the OFC Champions League and Group B look to be in a tough pool to advance from.
Malampa coach Steve Varegali said his team is ready to perform in front of their fans.
“They must do their best in order to achieve our objective,” he said.
“Our players have prepared really well. They are ready for these three games in front of us.”
