Defender Abass Mohammed, who started the second leg of the play-off against Coton Sport in Kumasi, has been dropped due to injury while Augustine Sefah makes a return after serving his suspension.

Once again, striker Frederick Boateng could not make the squad due to ongoing contract talks with Egyptian side Petrojet.

Zambian clubs Nkana FC and Zesco United will face off against each other in the other group game also on Sunday.
