Tamale City and Kotoku Royals will tuck-it-down in Week 16 of the 2022-23 Ghana Premier League, with this marquee matchup set to be an herculean clash of two clubs battling the drop.
Home side Tamale City will be out to shell-shock Kotoku from their abysmal (7L, 6D) road performance while their visitors have also shockingly pulled (3W, 11L, 1D) an awful number in the ongoing campaign.
Coach Abdul Wahid, assistant - Hamza Mohammed and his boys explicitly have to reverse their current fortunes that has seen them slump to the 17 spot on the league log.
Things haven’t been really perfect under new gaffer John Eduafo, who took the reins of a side struggling to win convincingly at home, after a difficult start to the season, Kotoku are yet to do what people expected of them - win matches and be utterly consistent.
A win over Tamale City would do Eduafo and his assistant Akakpo Patron a world of good, but the hot tandoor will only heat up if their squad doesn’t perform to standards.
City need a strong reaction to win this one against their fellow wounded relegation dwellers who can pull a surprise or at least exit the Aliu Mahama Stadium with a point on Saturday afternoon.
KICKOFF: 15:00GMT (3:00pm)
