Asante Kotoko know anything aside a win will not be accepted by their fans when they host Sekondi Hasaacas in the first-ever Friday night football match.

The wounded Porcupine Warriors have a full strength squad for the first time this season with the return of Felix Annan, Emmanuel Asante and Frank Sarfo Gyamfi from injuries.

But midfielder Jackson Owusu is still undergoing rehabilitation.

Hasaacas will have former Kotoko icon Eric Bekoe leading the attack and the former goal king will be supported by Prince Papa Arko and Samuel Afful.

Enterprising right back Amos Korankye could return to the starting line-up after missing last Sunday’s 1-1 draw at home with AshantiGold.

Sekondi Hasaacas have no major history against Asante Kotoko in the 21st century with only one victory in over twenty meetings.

Yusif Basigi has fix his leaky defence which has conceded 11 goals in just four matches.
