Sam Johnson tips Hearts for glory against Kotoko, demands explosive start

Former Hearts of Oak Defender Sam ‘Foyoo’ Johnson has tipped his former side to overcome Asante Kotoko but wants them to get off to a flying start when the two face off at the Accra Sports Stadium this weekend.

Ghana’s two biggest sides, face-off in the Super Clash on Match Week 6 and the game comes at a time when Hearts of Oak seem to have pulled the plugs on their sluggish start to the season.

Coach Edward Odoom’s side is now on an unbeaten run since MatchDay 2, amassing 7 points from their last 3 games, beating Dwarfs and Liberty Professionals by 2-1 score lines and drawing with WAFA at Sogakope.

On the contrary, Kotoko after starting the season brightly have lost 2 of their last 3 games and have had their confidence levels dented ahead of the big game on Sunday.

Former Ghana defender Sam Johnson believes Hearts are favorites to get maximum points but is urging the team to start the game in an explosive manner.
