Kickoff (Cape Town)
16 August 2008
Kumasi Asante Kotoko have been told to expect their miserable form on the road in Africa to continue on Sunday in Sousse as take on 2007 Champions League winners Etoile du Sahel in the CAF Confederations Cup.
Kotoko begin their bid to reach the last four of the Confederations Cup but must overcome a really poor form away from home to be able to do achieve that goal.
Kotoko have one of the finest home records having won all three games this year but they have lost all three games away from home too.
They are desperate for that to change but Etoile's Ghanaian Sadat Bukari insist that won't start in Sousse. He claims the Tunisians are a class above Kotoko and that their quality will show through.
"Our level of play, our standard of play is way above Kotoko. I have discussed with the coach all about Kotoko-the way they play, they have young players about their current form-who's in shape and not," he said.
Sadat, the former Heart of Lions player will be unavailable for the Tunisians after he was red carded in their last game but he has no doubt they will win.
"They should be expecting an all out game because in our first league game we played a 1-1 draw so this is a match Etoile has to console the fans," he added.
