Accra Hearts of Oak face Kotoku Royals at the Accra Sports Stadium this afternoon in the BetPawa Premier League matchday 22, with kick-off scheduled for 3:00 pm.
Assistant coach David Ocloo will send out his strongest squad for this game. However, he does have some important absentees such as Konadu Yiadom and Gladson Awako.
The gaffer has made two changes to his Hearts of Oak side that played against Bibiani Gold Stars for this afternoon’s game against the strugglers.
Richmond Ayi starts in goal. He comes in as a replacement for Eric Ofori Antwi.
Zakaria Yakubu will also join Caleb Amankwaa and Rashid Okine in defense as replacements for Konadu Yiadom. The former WAFA defender is unavailable for today’s clash due to yellow card accumulation.
In midfield, the coach has opted to go with the same set-up – Glid Otanga, Linda Mtange and Eric Esso with the attack completed by Benjamin York, Albert Diego Dieudonne Eonde and Kwadwo Obeng Junior.
