Medeama SC host newbies Dreams FC at the T&A Park knowing a win can catapult them into the Top 4.

The Yellow and Mauves will use the match to prepare for their CAF Confederation Cup assignment at Young Africans in a week’s time.

Defensive duo Moses Sarpong, Daniel Amoah alongside enterprising midfielder Emmanuel Yeboah are not available for selection on Sunday.

They are with the national U20 team in Senegal for Saturday's AYC qualifier.

Daniel Agyei is expected to keep his place as number one goalkeeper for the Yellow and Mauves after keeping cleaning sheet on his debut last Wednesday against WAFA SC.

Philemon McCarthy became the first goalkeeper to score in the league this season.

He scored a stunner against New Edubiase United last week and could retain his position as the first choice on Sunday.

Hardworking midfielder Emmanuel Hayford has been ruled out of the trip to Tarkwa to take on Medeama SC.

All other players are fully fit to face the Yellow and Mauves.

New signing Theophilous Annorbaah is expected to make his debut for the debutants against his former club.

He left Medeama SC two seasons ago.
