Welcome to the LIVE UPDATES of the CAF CAF Confederation Cup 2nd leg game between Kumasi Asante Kotoko versus Nkana FC at the Baba Yara Stadium.

Kotoko will be hoping to keep their home record intact having won all their home matches in the competition registering 6 goals and leaking in 3.

The Porcupine Warriors who fell at the hands of the Zambian side a week ago will be seeking for revenge at their home grounds in Kumasi where they are yet to lose a game in the tournament.

The Garden City lads are bottom in Group C with only three points and must fight for a good outcome in today’s game to steer back in contention for one of the two slots reserved for the group.

The club has also been dealt a major blow following the suspension of their skipper, Amos Frimpong, for accumulated yellow cards, creating a vacuum for Akonnor to fill.

Nkana will also miss the services of their defender Richard Ocran and Kenyan international Musa Mohammed due to suspension.

Ocran was sent off in the first leg win over Kotoko while Mohammed accrued his second yellow card in that match.

Nkana FC will be oozing with confidence as they are looking to continue from where they left off in Kitwe with a brace from Ronald Kampamba enough to send the Zambians to the top of the Group C table with 6points.
