Hearts players to pay attention to in front of Derby against Kotoko
Hearts will expect to expand their benefit over their adversaries this season and lessen the guide contrast toward ten places, when they travel to Kumasi to confront Kotoko on Sunday evening.
Samuel Boadu's Hearts go into the derby only eight days after a crude 1-0 win over Medeama last Saturday. Kotoko were additionally 1-0 champs over King Faisal last Sunday.
On top of things, we take a gander at three players to pay special attention to who we think will be fundamental in front of the conflict.
Muntari key to midfield control
It was very simple to see how poor the Phobians midfield was against Medeama last Saturday and a great deal of that was down to Sulley Muntari basically not being on the pitch.
The Ghana legend's capacity to drop somewhere down in safeguard, keep ball ownership in key regions and direct rhythm is something that we obviously missed. The midfield was non-existent against Medeama.
Gladson Awako and Abu Ushau battled to complete one another; not simply the shortcoming of the pair, however it should be said. Muntari returning is enormous and it will be an intriguing fight facing Kotoko's midfield turn of Salifu Mudasiru and Richard Boadu.
Muntari will be supposed to be at the core of passing conveyance expecting Hearts rule ownership assuming that Kotoko choose to play a low square and sit back.
Mohammed Alhassan's straightforward protecting and ball-conveying capacity
The middle back has without a doubt the best community back in the association. With a straightforward safeguarding approach, along comes his ball-playing capacities and skill of delivering the ball once again from guard and playing precise disregards the restrictions protection.
This will be enormous against a Kotoko group that will hope to counter-press and power Hearts' safeguard into committing an error. Holes will show up in Kotoko's shape and this should be taken advantage of on turnovers on the off chance that Hearts hope to depend on scoring through counter-assaults.
Protectively and upsettingly, he will have an immense impact. Not just in endeavors of keeping Franck Etouga Mbella and Georges Mfegues calm, however Alhassan could likewise have an immense impact in going after set-pieces.
Patrick Razak to score against Kotoko once more?
It hasn't been a fabulous season for Hearts up to this point yet history will let you know Razak has an astonishing objective scoring record against the Porcupine Warriors.
Razak is one of numerous Hearts assailants battling for structure, yet with four objectives in six appearances against Kotoko, it will come as a shock in the event that we don't see the precarious Razak showing up and not scoring this end of the week.
He cherishes playing against Kotoko. Isn't that right?
