Hearts of Oak head coach, Aboubakar Ouattara, has set his sights on leading the team to victory over Accra Lions in the Ghana Premier League midweek match.

The Phobians will face off with their Week 28 opponents in the league campaign on Wednesday, May 1.

In the team's last outing, Hearts of Oak suffered a 2-0 defeat to Legon Cities FC.

Speaking in a post-match interview after that game, Coach Aboubakar Ouattara said his team would work hard in training to ensure victory in their next match against Accra Lions.

"Every match, we need the three points. We lost today, but next, we must focus and work hard for the three points," Coach Aboubakar Ouattara told StarTimes.

After the defeat, the Phobians are now 12th on the Ghana Premier League table. With 35 points, finishing the season in the top four is now going to be difficult.

The game against Accra Lions on Wednesday will be played at the Accra Sports Stadium.
