Ceres-Negros FC kicks off AFC Cup campaign tonight

Busmen preparing for their first AFC Cup Group Stage match.

Ceres-Negros FC kicks off their AFC Cup campaign tonight against Burmese side Shan United at the Pana-ad Park and Stadium in Bacolod, with kickoff pegged at 730pm.

The game will be shown LIVE on both 5Plus and Fox Sports 2, with streaming access via Fox+ and through ESPN5's online accounts.

The Busmen are very much familiar with Shan United, having beaten them twice almost a year ago in the Group Stage, a 2-0 win at home in Bacolod then followed by a 1-0 win at the Thuwunna Stadium in Yangon.

Fresh from a 2-1 loss at home to Yangon United in the AFC Champions League playoffs earlier this month, the Negrense side and Philippines Football League champions hope that their camp in Singapore would be able to address some of the issues that sprung up in the loss.

Ceres-Negros FC and Shan United are in Group G alongside Vietnamese Cup champions Becamex Binh Duong and Indonesian Liga 1 powerhouse Persija Jakarta.
