This afternoon, Asante Kotoko will visit the Royals at the El-Wak Stadium with the intention of putting pressure on Legon. After Coach Seydou Zerbo’s departure, Abdul Gazale will act as caretaker for the Porcupine Warriors, hoping to get back to winning ways after losing 2-0 to Medeama SC last Sunday.
The defending champions of the Ghana Premier League will need to display a greater sense of purpose and determination against challenging opposition.
Kotoko’s away form hasn’t been outstanding, but they can take confidence from their victory against Samartex 1996 in their previous away game. They were defeated 2-0 at home by Medeama SC over the weekend.
Steven Mukwala, who has returned from international duty with Uganda, is on the bench, while striker Isaac Oppong is also a substitute. Matheus De Souza, a Brazilian international, is in the starting lineup.
Eric Serge Zeze, John Tedeku, and Richmond Lamptey are all part of Gazale’s starting XI against Cities.
Below is the confirmed lineup:
Frederick Asare (GK), Augustine Agyapong, John Tedeku, Mohammed Alhassan, Mohammed Sheriff, Richard Boadu [Agadas] C, Sheriff Mohammed, Richmond Lamptey, Serge-Eric Zeze, Georges Mfegue, Matheus De Souza.
