Head coach for Hearts of Oak SC Samuel Boadu has picked a strong starting lineup to face JS Saoura in the CAF Confederations Cup play-offs second leg today in Bechar, Algeria.
The head of technical bench for the 2020-21 Ghana Premier League winners has benched first choice goalkeeper Richard Attah after he conceded six goals the last time he kept the post in the team’s away game in continental club football competition.
Star boy Salifu Ibrahim will start from bench due to groin injury he sustained when Hearts beat JS Saoura 2-0 in Accra last weekend in Ghana at the Accra Sports Stadium.
According to report, Richard Attah took ill and is therefore not available for selection for the game and has position will be taken by youngster, Richard Baidoo for today’s game.
Hearts of Oak have 2-0 lead over JS Saoura and will have to avoid defeat with more than two goals to prevail into the group stage.
