CAF has turned down FC Platinum’s appeal to use Mandava Stadium for their Champions League match against Esperance this weekend.

The Zimbabwe champions had received a green light to host the tie at their home ground in Zvishavane, but the decision was reversed a few days ago, forcing them to return to at Barbourfields Stadium in Bulawayo.

FC Platinum played the other two home games at Emagumeni where they drew 0-0 against Orlando Pirates before losing 1-0 to Horoya.

The last Group B encounter is on Saturday and kick-off is at 3 pm.
