At the Nana Fosu Gyeabour park on Sunday, Bechem United will lock horns with West African Football Academy as they look to maintain their momentum on the league log. 

The Hunters suffered a painful loss a fortnight ago when they conceded in the dying embers of the game against bottom placed Bolga All Stars.

New recruit Alhaji Sanie could be making his debut this weekend if he is selected by Italian tactician Vincenzo Alberto Anesse on Sunday.

He has been training with the first team all week.

Emmanuel Osei Carlos can't make his first bow for his new club as he is absent. All other players are fully fit and available for selection against the Academy side.

West African Football Academy are hoping to make it two straight wins on the road after shockingly ending their poor away form with a 4-1 drubbing of the champions Wa All Stars in Wa last weekend.

That was their first victory in twenty seven outings in the premiership.

Youngster Aminu Mohammed was handed a second start after making his first team debut against Berekum Chelsea.

Versatile defender Mohammed Alhassan is expected back in the team for the visit to the Brong Ahafo region.

He was missing in their 4-1 resounding win last week.

Togolese striker Komlan Agbegniadan is available for Sunday's game after returning from the international assignment which saw him miss the match against Wa All Stars.
