Nations FC coach Kasim Ocansey Mingle is eager for a victory as his team faces Heart of Lions in the upcoming Ghana Premier League clash of week 10.
The Abrankese-based club will host Lions at the Dr Kwame Kyei Sports Complex on Sunday afternoon, with both teams currently positioned at the bottom of the Ghana Premier League table. Mingle’s side holds the 17th spot, while Fatawu Salifu’s team occupies the 18th position.
Mingle has conveyed the preparedness of his team for the game and expressed optimism that their home advantage will play a crucial role on Sunday.
“We are preparing just like we do in our other league matches to play them. So, we are on it preparing for Heart of Lions. Definitely, everybody is strong at his home. So, once we are playing at home, they are expecting a win from us, so we are also working towards that.”
“It’s football and is a game of uncertainty, so you cannot predict the scoreline. We are going to play, and God willing, we are going to win, but we can’t predict the scoreline.”
“Heart of Lions is not a bad side at all. In their last game, they went to Bibiani to secure a point against Goldstars. From two goals down, they were able to come back to draw the game. You know Goldstars is a very strong side, and for Lions to come from behind to draw tells you they are not a bad side.”
Nations FC will be aiming for their third win of the campaign after facing five losses and two draws in their games so far. They hope to lift themselves out of the relegation zone after matchday 10.
