Coach Evans Augustine Adotey has today named experienced right back, Kwadwo Amoako, in his 4-4-2 starting lineup ahead of young sensation, Mukhtar Moro against Karela United in the Western Region derby of the Betpawa Ghana Premier League.
A win for the Mauve and Yellows at the Akoon Community Park this afternoon sends Medeama 2nd on the league log, three clear points ahead of current occupants, Bechem United, who lost by 3-2 away to Tamale City at the Aliu Mahama Stadium in Tamale yesterday and three points behind top-ranked Aduana FC, who 6 points ahead, with a game advantage.
Medeama eyes nothing but maximum of three points in the week 26 fixture, earning the bragging right over closest neighbors in honor of former FIFA Referee TRK Atifu, who passed on this week following a gory accident; with an eye on edging past Aduana FC for the GPL title.
Spoils were shared in the reverse fixture at Aiyinase in the first round in a 1-1 scoreline.
