Medeama S.C head coach Ibrahim Tanko says his side must be more clinical in attack as they prepare to face Asante Kotoko in a high-stakes Ghana Premier League encounter at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium on Sunday.

The Mauves and Yellows sit third on the table with 22 points, just two ahead of Kotoko in fourth. Tanko, who has guided Medeama to an eight-game unbeaten run since their 1-0 defeat to Karela United on September 28, acknowledged the challenge Kotoko present:

“We are eight games unbeaten now but I know against Kotoko, it is going to be a different game altogether.”

Medeama’s Form


  • Last 8 matches: 4 wins, 4 draws

  • Strengths: Defensive resilience, unbeaten momentum

  • Focus: Strikers must be sharper in front of goal

Tanko added:

“Definitely, we will get our chances and I hope that the strikers will be more clinical this time and score the goals. I think it is going to be a very good game because both clubs have very good teams.”

Kotoko’s Preparations

The Porcupine Warriors suffered their first defeat of the season in a 2-1 loss to Holy Stars, denting morale ahead of Sunday’s clash. However, Kotoko will take confidence from their recent home record against Medeama, having won two of their last meetings at Baba Yara.
