The Porcupine Warriors has made four changes in his setup as they take on the debutants in the first game of the weekend
Asante Kotoko head coach Prosper Ogum Narteh has changed his starting line up for the first time since he took over the club as they prepare to face Gold Stars in matchday three of Ghana Premier League at Bibiani on Friday.
With captain Abdul Ganiu Ismail on international duties with Ghana, his place has been given to Andre Appau while Maxwell Agyemang takes over from Mubarik Yussif after he was hugely exposed by Augustine Okrah in their last game against Bechem United.
Also, Stephen Amankonah has been dropped to the bench after failing to impress in the two games he has started. As a result, Richard Boadu ‘Agadas’ comes into the starting team to play the defensive midfield role.
Mudasiru has been pushed forward and Richmond Lamptey will takeover Amankonah’s position.
However, Isaac Oppong who has been a super sub for Kotoko has also been handed a starting role and will replace Joseph Amoako who started all the two games against Dreams FC and Bechem United.
Kotoko are topping the log with six points, two points above Gold Stars who are also yet to taste defeat.
The new entrants won on opening day against Berekum Chelsea and shared the spoils 1-1 against Medeama on Tuesday.
