Accra Hearts of Oak believe their African disappointment will help them focus on Thursday's OneTouch premiership match against Zaytuna FC.

The Phobians play Zaytuna in their match-day-13 game.

The defending league champions, who are third from bottom having played eleven matches out of a maximum of thirteen will need to win at the Ohene Djan Stadium to improve their chances before Sunday's crunch game against leaders and rivals, Asante Kotoko, a game in hand.

Although Hearts were knocked out of the CAF Champions League after a 4-3 aggregate defeat on Sunday despite winning 3-1 at home, team coach, Eyal Lachman believes the club is back on winning ways and that will continue in the domestic competition beginning with Zaytuna.

However, Fadi Omar’s side only have to improve on their performance over the weekend after losing 1-0 to Tema Youth. Zaytuna, who lie just a step above bottom will be happy to leave the Accra grounds with at least a point.
