Hearts of Oak coach Herbert Addo says his team has no excuse not to beat AC Djoliba in the return leg of their CAF Confederation Cup tie on Sunday.

The Phobians are overwhelming favourites to progress in the competition having secured an impressive 2-1 result in the away leg a fortnight ago in Bamako.

Hearts are only required to avoid an over 2-1 defeat to book their place in the next stage of the competition.

But the fans expect a win and Addo says this must be delivered due to the fact that they even won the away game.

“The team is a good team but once we have been able to beat them in their home ground, then by all means we should be able to beat them here,” he said.

“They have arsenals coming, but we will block all of them.”

Hearts are now the sole surviving Ghanaian team in Africa this season following the early exit of Asante Kotoko from the CAF Champions League.
