Match Preview and Prediction: Asante Kotoko vs King Faisal

Asante Kotoko will face King Faisal in the Matchweek six of the Ghana Premier League season at the Baba Yara Stadium on Sunday.



Both teams go into the game with the aim of returning back to winning ways after they failed to win their last respective games.

Asante Kotoko settled for a draw the last time they faced King Faisal and will be looking to get all three points and extend their lead at the top of the table on Sunday.

The Porcupines will be going into the game with confidence as they welcome one of their key player Richmond Lamptey who began individual training on Friday, it is however not clear if the midfielder will be fully fit to feature in the game.

King Faisal on the other hand, will be without their top scorer and player of the month Osman Ibrahim as he will not feature in the game due to a clause included in his loan contract, this clause also affects Emmanuel Sarkodie who is also at King Faisal on loan from Kotoko.

Prediction:

King Faisal will be tough agaisnt Kotoko as they have enjoyed a bright start to the season, but the absence of Osman Ibrahim could hurt them and change the entire shape of the team.

I am typing Kotoko to narrowly beat King Faisal on Sunday.

Asante Kotoko 1-0 King Faisal
