The Porcupine Warriors will be desperate for the maximum points to put their title defense back on track after they stuttered against newly promoted Amidaus Professionals? last week.

Management of the team are beginning to feel the heat and will be hoping the Ghanaian League Champions can restore hope and avoid the potential backlash from their teeming supporters.

And their assistant trainer admits the challenge will be gargantuan.

Since the days of slugging it out for the title, the pair have always considered themselves foes and their encounters are regularly engrossing.

But it is not just entertainment factor which coach Yaw Acheampong and  Henry Wellington, respectively be searching this weekend.
