Asante Kotoko will be looking to turn their fortunes around when they face FC AshantiGold at the Obuasi Len Clay Stadium on Sunday, with the Porcupine Warriors desperate to end their disappointing run of away results in the league.

The Kumasi-based giants have gone eight consecutive away league matches without a victory, recording three draws and five defeats during that period. The statistics highlight the difficulties Kotoko have faced on their travels and the challenge awaiting them in their upcoming fixture.

For a club with Kotoko's history and ambitions, the poor away record will be a concern as they seek to remain competitive in the league. Although the team has managed to avoid defeat in three of those eight matches, the inability to secure all three points has prevented them from turning those results into victories.

Sunday's encounter against FC AshantiGold will therefore present another opportunity for the Porcupine Warriors to end the unwanted run and restore confidence among their supporters.

However, playing away from home comes with its own challenges, particularly when facing an opponent determined to make the most of its home advantage. The Len Clay Stadium in Obuasi is expected to provide the setting for a competitive encounter as both sides prepare to battle for the available points.

Kotoko will need to show greater consistency, improve their performance in crucial moments and take their scoring opportunities if they are to return to Kumasi with a positive result. Avoiding costly defensive mistakes will also be important as they attempt to put an end to their five defeats in the last eight away league games.

Beyond the immediate result, Sunday's match could provide an indication of whether Kotoko can begin to improve their performances away from home. Ending the winless streak would offer a welcome boost to the players and supporters while helping the club build momentum for its upcoming fixtures.

Nevertheless, FC AshantiGold will have their own plans and will not be expected to make things easy for the visitors. Kotoko must therefore approach the match with determination and discipline if they hope to leave Obuasi with maximum points.

With their away record attracting attention, all eyes will be on the Porcupine Warriors this Sunday. The big question is whether Asante Kotoko can finally end their eight-game winless away league run or extend their disappointing streak against FC AshantiGold at the Len Clay Stadium.
