Relegation-trapped Ghanaian Premier League giants Accra Hearts of Oak have received massive boost ahead of their must-win tie against Bechem United in the Ghanaian top-flight as Burkina Faso international keeper Abdoulaye Soulama has returned from suspension. 

Soulama's availability comes as big boost for the Phobians technical team headed by Turkish trainer Can Vanli as second choice Tetteh Luggard has been sidelined for up to 2 weeks with a muscle tear.

Luggard suffered a muscle problem while in the post for the 15-placed giants during their crucial 1-0 victory over Liberty Professionals at the Alhaji Sly Tetteh Memorial Park on Wednesday.

Soulama had to watch the Phobians last two games - 2-1 defeat against big rivals Asante Kotoko and 1-0 win over city-rivals Liberty Professionals, after picking a straight red card in the 4-0 demolition of Heart of Lions at the Cape Coast Stadium.

Hearts of Oak must beat fellow relegation-threatened Bechem United side in Accra on Sunday if they are to keep alive their survival hopes.
