PREVIEW :

League leaders Kumasi Asante Kotoko looks set to make it five wins out of five games as they play quest to Karela United back at Ayinase Crossby Awuah memorial park for match week 5 of the ongoing Ghana premier league on sunday 28th november 2021.

The Porcupine warriors were 2-0 victors the last time they visited the Cam park while having former coach Johnson Smith at the dagout which makes them a little bit favorite facing their sunday opponent.

With eight goals scored and conceeding just one in four matches, coach Prosper Nartey Ogum has ensured resilience at the heart of defense for the Porcupines as well as a compact mildfield, not to talk of how potent his frontliners has being where we’ve had young chab Isaac Oppong backed in three goals with a hatrick of assist.

Leading the Ayinase base club with seven points sums up Karela’s inconsistent run so far this season with two draws, a defeat and a 2-1 win over Berekum Chelsea in four matches.

Loosing their hitman Diawuse Taylor who toped last seasons goal scoring chart with 18 goals just account for reasons why Karela are misfiring this time around as they sit eigth on the log where last season at this stage, they were part of the top four teams, although they will hoping to avenge, once chocking a defeat the last time.

Richmond Lamptey for the first time will miss this crucial encounter through to an injury he sustained during last weekend game against Eleven Wonders whiles mildfield marshall Mudasiru due to his accumulated cards will also be missed in action coming face to face with Karela.

Kotoko are unbeaten in their last three competitive matches against Karela united including the NC special tourney.

Prediction : Karela united 1-2 Kotoko
