Eyimba SC goalkeeper, Fatau Dauda has reiterated that Kumasi Asante Kotoko can beat Etoile du Sahel convincingly with not more than three goals at Baba Yara Sports Stadium.
The Porcupine Warriors will welcome the Tunisian side in the first leg encounter on Sunday.
However, the former Ashgold shot-stopper beleives the Reds have the requisite qualities to beat the Etoile convincingly.
Speaking to Kumasi based OTEC FM, he said, “Now that Kotoko is playing in Africa, they represent the nation, not just the club, I remember when Kotoko were going to play Kano in Nigeria, their captain Felix Annan called me for a little advice and that gave them a good result.
“It’s possible Kotoko can score Etoile du Sahel more than 3 goals and is my prayer they qualify to the next stage of the competition,” he added.
The two-time champions overcame Kano Pillars of Nigeria 4-3 on aggregate to book their place in the final qualifying round.
Now standing between Kotoko and a first group stage appearance in 13 years are Etoile, who have been crowned champions once in 2007.
The game has been scheduled to kick off at 15:00GMT.
