Head-To-head: Asante Kotoko vs Inter Allies

After settling for a one all draw against WAFA last Sunday, Asante Kotoko will play as host to Inter Allies in our Match Day 2 Premier League fixture at Baba Yara Stadium.

Asante Kotoko secured their first ever point against WAFA at Sogakope last Sunday, a place Kotoko had gone down in three attempts.

If last weekend's draw at Sogakope owed more than a little to the generosity, it has also provided the Porcupines with valuable momentum.

The level of control the Asante Kotoko exerted on proceedings was encouraging.

Confidence is seeping back into Asante Kotoko bones - now the challenge is to keep climbing the table, find some fluidity and maintain that momentum - by this, Samuel Fabin should make it count against his former side on Sunday.
