Acknowledging the recent string of results, Ogum emphasized that Samartex FC emerges as the favoured side.

“We are going into this game as underdogs. If you look at our recent results it is clear that Samartex stands as the favourites. As a team, we are aware of this and we are working hard to get the results we are looking for. We are working on all aspects of the game to ensure we can match them boot for boot,” Coach Prosper Narteh Ogum said.

The much-anticipated match between Asante Kotoko and Samartex FC is slated to take place on Sunday, April 21, at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium.
