“Hearts of Oak in crisis is more dangerous than Hearts of Oak in form” – Eric Bekoe

Former Asante Kotoko striker, Eric Kwabena Bekoe has a word of caution to the vociferous fans of the club to be careful of Hearts Of Oak ahead of Sunday’s titanic clash .

The two biggest clubs – Hearts and Kotoko – will face off in a week 7 outstanding fixture of the 221/22 Ghana Premier League on Sunday 20th February 2022 at the Accra Sports Stadium.

Kotoko are in a devastating form ahead of the duel. They currently sit top of the league log with 36 points after 16 games – 12 points better than their opponent who occupies the 8th spot.

Again, Hearts Of Oak – defending champions of the league – go into the titanic clash with just a win from their last four games.

But Bekoe has warned Kotoko fans to thread cautiously and not underrate Hearts because of their recent poor form.

“Kotoko & Hearts of Oak is not about form guide, whoever tells you this game is about form is lying to you. If this game is about form, the [Kotoko] team from 2007/08 should have beaten Hearts during our time” – Eric Bekoe told Takoradi-based Empire FM.

“Hearts of Oak in crisis are more dangerous than Hearts of Oak in form. We should just avoid complacency, go all out and make sure we play every minute with all seriousness.” – Bekoe added.

Bekoe scored the second of Kotoko’s three goals in the 2007/08 Super Clash game that sold out an incredible six-goal thriller.

He went on to win that season’s golden boot award with 17 goals.
