Kotoko striker Franck Mbella Etouga, is eyeing this weekend's Super Clash fixture versus rivals and Premier League champions, Hearts of Oak.
Kotoko lost out on being crowned league champions last season after a 1-0 defeat to Hearts in the final super clash of the league season and despite already being 12 points ahead, the Porcupines can make a huge statement with a win over the Phobians this weekend.
Kotoko have sometimes been unstoppable this season, winning 11 of their 16 league games and there is a real sense amongst fans that they can grab a 25th title this season, and Cameroonian forward Etouga seems eager to face rivals.
"Now I will enjoy the win [over Accra Lions], go home, sleep and prepare for Hearts of Oak,' the striker said.
Etouga has been a revelation for the Porcupines this season, scoring in 11 of his 12 Kotoko appearances this season and is the current top scorer of the top flight. His early-season exploits have left many of the Kotoko faithful raving and the striker is pleased with the support he is receiving from the club.
"I am very happy to score a hattrick today, I say thank you to the team, management team and all of Kotoko. I am very happy," Etouga said in his post-match interview.
Ahead of the clash this weekend, Kotoko have lost just two games as compared to Hearts' four and while Hearts have recorded six draw, Kotoko have three.
