Asante Kotoko makes a trip to the Capital where they are expected to battle Legon Cities for the BetPawa Ghana premier league matchday 24 with a 19-man squad from Kumasi to Accra this Afternoon.
But their top striker Steven Mukwala will join the team in Accra after his national duty, ghanasportspage.com can confirm. Coach Abdul Gazale’s side will go into the game without some key players like Solom Sarfo Taylor, Ernest Osei Opoku, Clinton Opoku and Justice Blay but we can confirm that Justice Blay is still not fit for the fixture against the Royals on Thursday.
However, Justice Blay, Dickson Afoakwa, and Rashid Nortey will not be available for selection as they are still recovering from their respective injuries.
Kotoko will be looking to consolidate their position on the league log after a 2-0 painful defeat to Medeama SC last Sunday that brought about the sacking of their coach Zeydou Zerbo.
The interim Coach Abdul Gazale will expect a positive reaction when they square off with a struggling Legon Cities at the Accra Sports Stadium on Thursday 30th March 2023.
The Royals are not in a comfortable position-Just two points from the danger zone after 23 matches giving them no option but to secure the three points against a strong opponent, Asante Kotoko.
Maxwell Konadu will fancy a victory over his former club as they look to move up the table with the Royals but Coach Abdul Gazale will not give them a chance to secure the three points as boosted by a STRONG defender, Maxwell Agyemeng and Mukwala is expected to join the squad in Accra after his national duty.
