The second round of the Ghana Premier League starts today as Kotoko make the trip to face struggling Heart of Lions in Kpando.
Having failed to make it into the round of 16 of the MTN FA after losing 2-0 to Karela United few days ago, Coach Prosper Narteh Ogum and his boys will hope to have a good start in the second half of the campaign.
The Reds head into the game third on the Premier League table, and now have the opportunity to move up.
Frederick Asare is back between the sticks for this one, having been benched during the MTN FA Cup clash against Karela United.
Though the likes of Baba Yahaya, Georges Mfegue, Shadrack Addo, Julius Ofori Ziggy, Prince Adesa, Nana Benyin Amoah and team captain Danlad Ibrahim miss out, Ogum has a strong team to extend their unbeaten run in the league.
Below is Kotoko’s starting XI against Heart of Lions:
