Asante Kotoko will play Mauritanian champion Nouadhibou in the preliminary round of the 2020/21 Caf Champions League.
The Porcupine Warriors will travel to Mauritania for the first leg before hosting the second game, which will likely take place in their adopted home, the Accra Sports Stadium.
The first leg is scheduled for November 27 and 29, while the return leg is the weekend of December 4-6.
The winner will face Al Hilal of Sudan or Ugandan champion AC Vipers in the next round.
The two-time champions were selected by the Ghana Football Association (GFA) after they canceled the 2019/20 season due to the coronavirus.
Initially there were doubts about their participation, but they finally agreed to participate following the appointment of Nana Yaw Amponsah as CEO in August.
Amponsah has set an ambitious goal of winning the competition during his tenure.
Kotoko was last crowned champion in 1983.
