Prediction
Medeama SC 0-1 Asante Kotoko
Asante Kotoko's superior form and strong away record make them the favorites for this encounter, but Medeama’s resilience and recent home performances suggest they will put up a tough fight. However, Kotoko's attacking power and defensive solidity should see them edge out Medeama in what promises to be a tightly contested match.
