In a glitz and in glamour, Ghanaian giant Asante Kotoko look to keep their pace on the summit of the league log after suprisingly whitewashing Aduana stars for the first time in the Ghana premier league on the road when they come neck to neck with regional rivals Obuasi Ashanti Gold in matchday 12 from the Baba Yara sports stadium on sunday.
However, the club is set to loose a titanic mildfield marshall in Richmond Lamptey due to accumulated cards.
Lamptey, who was on the score sheet for the second against Aduana stars, as per rules partaining the game have accumulated three yellow cards in games with Dreams FC, and two other clubs which automatically lead the inform lad to be missed in action for the Porcupines facing the miners.
Playing not so as an offensive under coach Prosper Nartey Ogum, the zealous chab have managed three goals and a number of assist after eleven round of matches for the reds, indicative of a blow for the club not to feature in that epic clash.
Kotoko, even having an outstanding encounter with arc nemesis Accra Hearts Of Oak, are first on the log with 23 points.
