Asante Kotoko's title ambitions will be put to test when they welcome Bechem United in match-day 20 of the First Capital Plus Premier League at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium on Sunday.

The unimpressive Porcupine Warriors will be faced with winning their disgruntled supporters over at home following their 1-3 loss to Liberty Professionals at the Carl Reindorf Park last weekend.

Kotoko will be the first to admit that nothing short of a convincing results will appease their supporters and also possibly whip back on track their title ambitions that are already in flames.

The host, lying ninth on the log with 25 points out of a possible 57 after 19 matches are not out of clinching the title and the journey to give life to that ambition cannot begin beyond Bechem United.

Having beaten league leaders, AshGold 2-0 in the MTN FA Cup quarter-finals in mid-week to qualify for the semi-finals stage of the competition, the homers are expected to aquire the right attitude, mentality and confidence to trigger a resurgence.

Elsewhere, Hearts of Oak will travel to the Sunyani Coronation Park to battle bottom placed B.A United whilst Kennedy Ashia lead his side Liberty Professionals to face Great Olympics in a regional derby at the Accra Sports Stadium.

At the Len Clay Stadium, New Edubiase who are lying in the relegation zone will host Medeama SC on Saturday, before Heart of Lions who are serving a temporary home ban form their favourite Park take on Berekum Chelsea at same venue on Sunday.

In Dormaa, Aduana Stars will slug it out with third-placed WAFA at the Agyemang Badu Park, while Sekondi Hasaacas come up against league leaders Ashantigold at the Essipong Stadium, Sekondi.

At the Tema Stadium rejuvenated Wa All Stars play host to Inter Allies.
