Douglas Nkrumah and Ahmed Toure have both recovered from injury to start in Sunday’s Premier League clash for Hearts of Oak and Asante Kotoko respectively. Nkrumah has been out for three weeks with an ankle problem but makes a return to partner Mahatma Otoo in Hearts’ attack. Toure on the other hand was doubtful for this game for an unspecified injury but Kotoko’s medical team’s intensive efforts to get him fit for the tie has proven successful. Both teams are currently on the pitch doing the pre-match warm-up ahead of the 15:00GMT local time kickoff. Kotoko lead Hearts on the Premier League standings by just a point in the six matches played so far. Starting line-ups Hearts: Sammy Adjei, Samuel Enzemaba, Bobie Ansah, Owusu Sefa, Kofi Agyare, Philip Boampong, Moro Abubakar, Isaac Ofori, Douglas Nkrumah, Thomas Abbey, Uriah Asante and Mahatma Otoo.
