Hearts of Oak match squad for the Accra Lions game on Thursday has been revealed.
The Phobians will be hoping to solidify their performance to claim the win and move closer to the top four before the break.
They are tenth on the table after their goalless draw with Karela United over the weekend.
Accra Lions also come into the game after winning their last five matches in the Ghanaian top flight. They currently sit on top of the league table. The excellent run of form comes on the back of losing their opening game of the league campaign against Kotoku Royals.
The Lions will know that they need to maintain their current positive momentum if they are to maintain their position in the standings.
They have a decent recent home record in the Ghanian Premier League, as they are unbeaten in seven home league matches, having recorded five wins and two draws.
However, Hearts of Oak head into this game on the back of a five-game unbeaten run in the Premier League, which has consisted of three wins and two draws.
They will miss the services of Daniel Afriyie Barnieh who is on national duty with the Black Stars.
Elsewhere, their goalkeeper Richard Attas has returned to the match for the first time since the arrival of Slavko Matić. He is yet to start for the Rainbows this season, having missed all their last eight fixtures in the local league and the Confederations Cup.
