After a disappointing loss to Bechem United on Monday, Accra Hearts of Oak look to recover, both in spirits and in points as they face Tamale City this afternoon.
The Rainbow side have lost just two of their last two games and could return to the top four if they beat the visitors today. Yet the perception remains that all is not entirely well at Hearts due to the shortage of players in camp.
There are a number of selection headaches deputy coach David Ocloo will need to deal with before the game, however, with a couple of key players not available.
Samuel Inkoom, Zakaria Yakubu are having a setback but will be available for action and Enoch Esubonteng is suspended after his red card against Bechem United.
Ayi remains in posts while Inkoom starts alongside Robert Addo Sowah and Rashid Okine in defence.
Salifu Ibrahim will captain the team and hold the midfield with Eric Esso.
Kwadwo Obeng Jnr will still be upfront this afternoon and drive the team back to winning ways.
Today’s match kicks off at 3:00pm and will be shown live on StarTimes Adepa Channel 247.
