Following a series of thrilling quarter finals in the Aiteo Cup, we're down to the final four, as the teams still standing in the competition compete for the chance to represent Nigeria in the 2019 CAF Confederation Cup.

Kano Pillars, Enugu Rangers, Nasarawa United and Katsina United are set to contest the semi finals, which kick off on Wednesday, in this fascinating battle between the old guard and the emerging forces in Nigerian football.
