Coach Samuel Boadu has confirmed a strong starting lineup for this afternoon’s showdown against the Porcupine Warriors.
Hearts will play as the away side at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium against Kotoko.
The Rainbow’s are still aiming to claim another bragging right over the host as the history and record favours them when playing against the Porcupines in Kumasi in spite of the team’s bouncing performance.
Goalkeeper Richmond Ayi has been maintained in the starting lineup whiles Richard Attah misses out due to injury. Captain Fatawu Mohammed will lead the defense alongside Mohammed Alhassan.
The line-up released by Coach Boadu includes Black Stars defender , Dennis Korsah with the midfield being controlled by Salim Adams, Gladson Awako and Abdul Aziz Nurudeen in the absence of Sulley Ali Muntari.
As usual, Daniel Afriyie Barnieh, Kwadwo Obeng Junior and Isaac Mensah will stand as the front three to battle out in the much-awaited anticipated game.
The team’s leading top scorer of the current season, Kofi Kordzi and their new signing Samuel Inkoom, the former Black Stars defender will start from the bench.
