Considered Nigeria's most successful team,Enyimba have been a dominant force over the past decade and a half.
The Peoples Elephant have won seven domestic titles since 2001 with last year's title winning season ending a three-year winning streak by Kano Pillars.
Enyimba are the only team from Nigeria to have won the Caf Champions League. Winning their maiden title in 2003 - beating Al-Ismaily 2-1 on aggregate - they successfully defended their crown a year later.
Deadlocked 3-3 on aggregate against Étoile du Sahel , the Aba Warriors won the resulting penalty shoot-out 5-3 to claim the 2004 crown.
Enyimba have also won the Caf Super Cup on two previous occasions.
The Elephants play their home games at the Enyimba International Stadium.
