Warriors have so far won two of their three games in the competition<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"clear:right\">Premier League giants, Kumasi Asante Kotoko and Ashgold, will renew their regional rivalry at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium in Kumasi this afternoon in a fourth-week cracker of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), Normalisation Committee Special Competition.<\/p>\n<p>Kotoko will be looking forward to building upon their heavy 3-0 win over Techiman Eleven Wonders last Sunday by producing another masterclass against Ashantigold in a tough game which will put the bragging rights on the line.<\/p>\n<p>The Porcupine Warriors have so far won twice out of their three outings and will work tirelessly to avoid losing to their noisy neighbours who forced a second straight goalless draw on the road against Aduana Stars at Dormaa-Ahenkro last Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>Coach Charles Kwablan Akonnor of Kotoko is expecting a full house against the Miners despite reports linking several big names such as skipper Amos Frimpong, Songne Yacouba and Emmanuel Gyamfi away from the club.<\/p>\n<p>Ashantigold, on the other hand, are bent on returning to winning ways, having won once over Eleven Wonders (2-0) and drawn twice against Bechem United and Aduana Stars, making the clash a very cagey one.<\/p>\n<p>Aduana Stars will visit the Golden City Park to play Berekum Chelsea and Medeama play host to Bechem United at the Tarkwa T&amp;A Park in the other northern sector fixtures.<\/p>\n<p>In the southern sector, Accra Hearts of Oak return to the Accra Sports Stadium today to lock horns with Ebusua Dwarfs in a must-win assignment to revive the Phobians campaign after losing their last two games to Elmina Sharks and Karela United by 0-1 margins away.<\/p>\n<p>Coach Kim Grant needs to get his charges back together to avoid another defeat, having registered their first win at home against Dreams FC barely a fortnight ago.<\/p>\n<p>Liberty Professionals will storm the Nduom Sports Complex to face Elmina Sharks, high-flying Karela United will hope to maintain their unbeaten run with a trip to Sogakope to challenge WAFA, while inter Allies battle it out with Dreams FC at the Tema Stadium.<\/p>\n<div class=\"related_articles\" style=\"width: 100%;\">\n<div style=\"clear: both; font-size: 90%; background-color: #eeeaea; padding: 5px; margin-top: 10px;\">\n<table
