Giants Asante Kotoko will today, July 3, 2021, take on relegation-threatened side King Faisal for the matchday 32 clash in the ongoing season.
It is one of the biggest games on the African continent. Hearts of Oak and Asante Kotoko, the two most decorated team in the Ghana Premier League will this afternoon come face to face in a clash which has far more reaching consequences than just three points on the day.
The Phobians have slipped to second on the league log after Kumasi Asante managed a hard-fought 2-1 victory over Karela United on Wednesday.
For Kotoko, with Hearts of Oak set to play tomorrow, dropping points is not on the cards as a victory today will push them to the top of the league.
Having already thumped Liberty Professionals by three unanswered goals in the Round of 64, the Phobaians will need a win to keep themselves in the opportunity.
Second-tier side Thunderbolt FC will host giants Asante Kotoko at the Nana Afrane Okese Park (Ejisu) for the round of 32 tier.
Kotoko also need a win at to keep up the chase with Hearts of Oak who have opened a three-point lead after a 2-0 victory over Medeama.
CK Akonnor and his charges are looking to begin preparations for the world cup qualifiers on strong footing by beating the Moroccans. Akonnor ahead of the game said he was expecting a tough contest but confident of victory.
The Phobians currently occupy the first position on the Premier League table and will want to keep their momentum as they are keen on breaking their trophyless jinx.
The Porcupine Warriors will have the opportunity to go on top of the Ghana Premier League at the Obuasi Len Clay Sports Stadium before Accra Hearts of Oak will play Great Olympics later in the day.
