Asante Kotoko interim head coach, Abdul Karim Zito, has urged his players to remain focused as they prepare for a crucial showdown against arch-rivals Hearts of Oak.
The highly anticipated fixture, part of Matchday 30 in the 2024/25 Ghana Premier League, will take place on Sunday, May 4, at the Accra Sports Stadium.
Kotoko head into the encounter with a psychological edge, having recorded four consecutive victories over the Phobians across all competitions.
However, Zito insists his team must not let complacency set in.
“We are going in with the mentality of winning… They [Hearts of Oak] know very well that they’ve lost for some time against Kotoko. I think they will double up their effort,” he said.
“What we have to put in mind is, despite the favourable results in the four matches, we still have to stay focused with a good attitude towards our objective so that we get the results,” Zito added.
Kick-off is scheduled for 15:00 GMT.
