Accra Hearts of Oak will visit Karela United in Anyinase on Saturday afternoon in search of another three points.
After beating Kotoku Royals to close the gap on Aduana Stars, Hearts are chasing further comfort in Week 23.
They will be hoping to extend their unbeaten run to four games, but a trip to Karela could prove tricky for David Ocloo’s men this weekend.
Ahead of this clash, Coach David Ocloo will be without Kwadwo Obeng Junior because of illness.
Caleb Amankwah is also unavailable for the game following his red card in the game against Kotoku Royals.
The highly-rated defender was initially booked in the 80th minute but decided to take off his shirt after scoring the only goal in the final minutes of the game.
However, the referee had no choice but to give Amankwah a second yellow card.
Elsewhere, Gladson Awako is still on the team’s injury list.
Tomorrow’s clash is the reverse fixture from the week 6 clash, which ended goalless at the Accra Sports Stadium.
Victory for the Rainbows on Saturday could see them climb to second place.
Coach David Ocloo has a 20-man squad at his disposal ahead of the game. In-form Amankwaa Baafi, Eric Esso, Konadu Yiadom, Salifu Ibrahim, and Linda Mtange will be on the bus for the long journey.
