Asante Kotoko will be looking to bounce back from a disappointing home draw as they face Berekum Chelsea at Golden City Park on Sunday.

The Porcupine Warriors are determined to return to winning ways after a frustrating 1-1 draw at the Len Clay Stadium against Young Apostles.

Despite a strong start to the season with a 1-0 win over Karela United in their opener, Kotoko struggled to maintain momentum last week as they drew 1-1 newly promoted side. This result left fans displeased, as Kotoko now sit in fourth place with four points.

Coach Prosper Narteh Ogum will be hoping to secure a win against a side that has historically troubled them. Berekum Chelsea, under the guidance of former Hearts of Oak coach Samuel Boadu, are a formidable opponent, especially at home.

Chelsea have a similar start to the season, also collecting four points and sitting fifth on the table. Both teams have games in hand due to their postponed fixtures against Nsoatreman, who were involved in the CAF Confederation Cup.

The statistics do not favour Kotoko heading into this fixture. Kotoko have failed to win an away match against Berekum Chelsea since 2010, with their last meeting ending in a 2-1 defeat. Chelsea remain unbeaten at home against Kotoko in their last 11 encounters, making Golden City Park a challenging venue for the visitors.

Berekum Chelsea are unbeaten in 13 of their last 14 home matches and have lost only twice in their last 15 games at home. However, their goal-scoring form has been modest, averaging 0.50 goals per match. On the other hand,

Kotoko have shown promise on the road, scoring in four consecutive away matches and winning their last two away league fixtures.

With both teams level on four points, this match promises to be a tight contest as Kotoko seek to end their winless run in Berekum, while Chelsea aim to maintain their strong home form.
