Bofoakwa Tano are sure to beat Kumasi Asante Kotoko in their upcoming sixth week premier league match on Sunday in Sunyani.

Speaking to the Ghana News Agency Sports on Thursday in Sunyani, Mr Ohene Adjei, a Sunyani-based businessman and a Board Member of the club, said Bofoakwa was fully prepared to snatch the maximum three points from Kotoko. Mr Adjei, who sounded very confident, said their resolve was reinforced by last season's league match, during which a Kotoko fan assaulted the referee on the field of play, leading to the abandonment of the match; "we want to beat them to justify the Ghana Football Association's (GFA) decision to award us the three points in that encounter".

He dismissed the current form of Kotoko as "nothing before us" at the Sunyani Coronation Park, saying, "we also have equally in-form players who can match the Oseikrom lads squarely". The Director said it would be suicidal to lose to Kotoko since last year no team could defeat the club at the Coronation Park.

The Board Member stated: "Surely we are going to beat them because hardly do Kotoko beat us in Sunyani." Mr Adjei urged supporters of the club to throng the park and comport themselves well before and after the match towards the players and the match officials. He expressed confidence in the club's coach, Bright Obeng, who he said had prepared the boys adequately for the encounter.
