The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has banned Bingu National Stadium (BNS) from hosting CAF Champions League matches due to its poor condition.
This means that FCB Nyasa Big Bullets risk playing their CAF Champions League match against Red Arrows from Zambia away from home.
In a communication to all Member Associations, BNS has been excluded from the list of stadiums approved for this year’s tournament.
CAF indicates that the list of approved stadiums is specifically for the CAF Champions League or Confederation Cup.
The ban comes one month before the Flames host Burundi in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers.
BNS, which is located in Malawi’s capital city of Lilongwe, was opened on January 28, 2017.
The stadium has a capacity of 41,000 people and is named after the late President Bingu Wa Mutharika.
