Asante Kotoko beat second-tier side Asokwa Warriors 5-0 at the Baba Yara Stadium on Thursday afternoon.
The goals were scored by in-form Seidu Bancey, a brace from Aminu Mohammed, Abeiku Ainooson and Godfred Asante.
The Ghanaian champions are preparing for Sunday's league match against New Edubiase United at the same venue.
Kotoko drew 0-0 with Edubiase at the same venue last season when they met in a week 9 fixture.
