Ghana legend Stephen Appiah has revealed he will be at the Accra Sports Stadium to watch Sunday’s Ghana Premier League top-liner between Hearts of Oak and Great Olympics.

The former Black Stars captain who started his professional career with Hearts of Oak has also declared support for the Phobians and said he expects Herbert Addo’s boys to triumph.

“Definitely I will be at the Accra sports stadium and I will be going to support Hearts of Oak,” he told Sports Crusader.

Hearts are seeking to confirm their superiority over their city-rivals but the tie is expected to be hugely by the presence of experienced trio Richard Kingson, Dan Quaye and Godwin Attram who all play for Olympics.

Olympics are determined to win the game and have said they are not bothered by Hearts’ recent form in the CAF Confederation Cup where they have gone a five-game unbeaten streak.
