Legon Cities have moved their home game against Asante Kotoko SC in the Match Day 12 of the BetPawa Premier League to the WAFA Park at Sogakope.
In a not so good performance from both teams so far this season, Sogakope as a venue places this encounter opened as the WAFA Park becomes a neutral center of attraction in this game.
Legon Cities have had a good showing at the El-Wak Sports Stadium as their home grounds but are not good on the road and coming up against Asante Kotoko SC, how they will be continuing a good home performance this season is left to be seen.
After a difficult times the team went through during the preseason with issues regarding player welfare, it takes an exceptional coach like Paa Kwesi Fabian to stabilize the team to walk through the 2023-24 season so far.
For Asante Kotoko, in a forgettable start of the season thus far, nothing but a victory would be a thing needed to be written again in trying to win the league trophy and returning to Africa competitions ones more.
A game like against Legon Cities could be one of the games Asante Kotoko can be picking points to pushing them to achieving their purpose for the season which comes good at a venue they are familiar with.
The wishy-washy path attained so far by Prosper Ogum's side would be heading towards disaster should they lose this encounter on Saturday afternoon which will expose the patients of their already angry supporters.
