WAFA vs Kotoko preview, match stats, kickoff time & where to watch

Just like visiting the Nana Agyemang Badu Park, the Red Bull Arena in Sogakope is another venue away teams don’t dream of winning over there. Therefore, the celebration for a draw is tantamount to that of a win.

Asante Kotoko will be put to a massive test at Sogakope against West Africa Football Academy(WAFA) this afternoon in match week 27 of the ongoing season.

WAFA might be the favourite to win the tie but Kotoko have been impressive in their last two visits though the latter have never won at the venue.

The Reds recorded a 0-0, 1-1, 1-1 draw in 2018, 2020 and 2021 respectively the last time they faced the Academy boys away. The last time WAFA beat Kotoko at home was in 2017 where they won 2-0.

This game is apparently not the top liner of the weekend but it has all that it takes to be a must-watch game. Will Kotoko end their winless run at Sogakope? Will Kotoko duo Mfegue and Etouga have yet another good game?

Questions that keep all local football enthusiasts in a much-anticipated mood ahead of the game.

WAFA have not been convincing at home- which used to a slaughterhouse for most clubs including the Porcupines.

A win for Kotoko would extend their lead a the top of the league while WAFA’s 

WAFA would need a win to boost their chances of avoiding relegation as they are languishing second-bottom on the table and must navigate their path against the league leaders who are winless in their last two matches.

Kotoko on the other hand, would want to win to end their two-game winless streak to boost their Premier League title chase.
