Burundian officials will be at the centre of Saturday's CAF Champions League second round tie between Tusker and St Michel from Seychelles.

The trio of centre referee--Gasingwa Eric, first assistant Ramadhan Nijimbere, second assistant Emmanuel Ndikumasabo and fourth official Pacifique Ndabihawe--are expected in the country this afternoon.

Tanzanian match commissioner Leslie Liunda arrives tomorrow. St. Michel are also expected in the country where they face a huge task of overturning a 4-1 deficit against the local champions.

Winners of the two-legged encounter will face Egypt's Al Ahly in the next round. Tickets for the match go on sale tomorrow, where a seat in the VIP stand will cost Sh500 and Sh200 for terraces.
