Kotoko will travel to Nigeria to face Kano Pillars – who finished second in the NPFL last season – in the first-leg of the competition.
The Porcupine Warriors will then host the second-leg at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium in two week’s time.
The winner of the counter will then progress to face the winner of the game between Hafia FC of Guinea and Etoile Sahel of Tunisia in the second round of the preliminary phase.
Meanwhile, fellow Ghanaian club Ashanti Gold will also lock horns with Akonangui FC of Equatorial Guinea for a place in the second round of the CAF Confederations Cup.
