Asante Kotoko are just two points off the drop zone ahead of their outstanding match-day-18 clash with Beechem Chelsea in the Glo Premier League.

The Porcupine Warriors who would be playing at home - Baba Yara Stadium - know they can't afford to disappoint their huge following in what has come been accepted as a poor season by their high standards.

Lying 11th on the table and 11 points off the top, Kotoko need a massive lift to turn around their season with eleven games to go.

For Chelsea, who are also not far off the drop, considering that they share the same points - 22 - with two of the sides that are in the relegation zone, defeat to Kotoko would come as a big blow.

Kotoko will need to enough confidence to produce a win on Wednesday but their hopes can be dashed depending on how Chelsea approach the game.
