Match Preview: Asante Kotoko vs Berekum Chelsea- Porcupines eye Bibires scalp at Obuasi
Asante Kotoko will host Berekum Chelsea in a tasty Matchday 19 fixture at Obuasi on Sunday.
The Porcupine Warriors return to action following their 4-0 demolition of Bechem United at the Len Clay Stadium in midweek.
The game will kick off at 3pm and will be telecasted live on StarTimes.
The Kumasi-based giants seem to have settled nicely in their newly adopted home grounds.
