Originally slated for Thursday, the clash has been moved up a day to Wednesday, the 15th of November 2023, with kick-off set for 1:00 pm at the Dan Anyiam Stadium in Owerri.
This adjustment was communicated officially by the league organizers through a memorandum distributed to all participating clubs, mandating that league matches be held on Wednesday instead of the initially specified Thursday.
