The Osogbo-based giant-killers are drawn against two-time African champions in one of the Cup quarterfinals on Monday in Ibadan.

Prime FC finished top of Group C ahead of NPL sides, Sharks and Enugu Rangers as well as non-league outfit, Dynamite Force while the People’s Elephant got the runners-up spot from Bauchi centre.

Adesina told SuperSport.com that his wards are comfortable with Premier League sides’ opposition than an amateur.

“Expect a good game from us. In fact, we enjoy playing premier league teams, having beaten Wikki Tourists, Rangers and held Sharks to a draw, I think we’re better off playing strong sides.

“My boys are determined to stop Enyimba, I’ve already told them to use every opportunity that comes their way, the stage is knockout, no second chance.

“We’re not scared of Enyimba, in fact, if there was a team we’re supposed to fear that team is Rangers.

“As a player I feared nobody and that is what I’m imparting on my players not to fear any team.

“So let Enyimba come or any other team, we’re ready and will definitely achieve victory,” he said.

The former Nigerian defence ace, who admitted that discipline is the driving force for his wards’ flawless campaign, said playing the Aba club in Ibadan is a plus to his side.

“Discipline, hardwork and motivation are the factors that have seen us to where we are today. My boys have lion hearts and the knack for success,  he said.
