The Nigeria Football Federation, NFF, on Thursday released the fixtures and venues for the semi final matches of the 2013 Men's Federation Cup competition, following Wednesday's quarter final games.

The two-time CAF Champions League winners, Enyimba FC of Aba, who saw off the challenge of ambitious Nasarawa United FC of Lafia, in Abeokuta, will face last year's runners-up Lobi Stars of Makurdi, at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium, Benin City.

Warri Wolves, which stunned Premier League defending champions, Kano Pillars, 3-0, in Ilorin, are up against giant-killers Akwa United FC at the Abubakar Tafawa Balewa Stadium, Bauchi.

Both matches come up on August 21.

Akwa United FC are the revelation of this year's competition, following their mid-week elimination of Cup holders, Heartland FC of Owerri, on penalties. Both teams finished 1-1 before the Uyo boys triumphed 5-4.

Lobi Stars prevailed 2-1 over another surprise package, Akwa Starlets of Uyo, at the Nnamdi Azikiwe Stadium, Enugu and will aim to reach the showpiece Grand Finale in Lagos in September.
