They are yet to lose any game at home. The newly promoted side won one and drew the other.<\/p>\n<p>Against Asante Kotoko, they will need to up their game against a side that s resilient in defending. The sixth-placed, two-time CAF Champions League winners are looking for their third win of the season.<\/p>\n<p>Asante Kotoko has scored in every game they have played this season.<\/p>\n<p>Expect both sides to score.<\/p>\n<h3>The game to end in a draw<\/h3>\n<p>Asante has not scored more than one goal in any of the GPL games they\u2019ve played this term. The Porcupines are expected to score, but can they keep Nations FC strikers at bay?<\/p>\n<p>They have one away win in two, losing 2 &#8211; 1 to Bibiani Gold Stars. With Nations FC still finding their feet in the GPL, Kotoko could take advantage to secure a win.<\/p>\n<p>However, Nations FC has a mean defence and has not let in more than one goal per game this season.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_145475\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-145475\" style=\"width: 696px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img class=\"wp-image-145475 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/nations-fc-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"nations vs asante kotoko gpl week 5\" width=\"696\" height=\"464\" srcset=\"https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/nations-fc-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/nations-fc-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/nations-fc-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/nations-fc-1-20x13.jpg 20w, https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/nations-fc-1-80x53.jpg 80w, https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/nations-fc-1-480x320.jpg 480w, https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/nations-fc-1-60x40.jpg 60w, https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/nations-fc-1-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/nations-fc-1-696x464.jpg 696w, https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/nations-fc-1-1068x712.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/nations-fc-1-1920x1280.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/nations-fc-1-630x420.jpg 630w, https:\/\/goalballlive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/nations-fc-1.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" title=\"\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-145475\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Credit nationsfcgh.com<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>Under 2.5<\/h3>\n<p>Though they have not scored more than a goal this season, Asante Kotoko could be pushed to score more than once to get three points.<\/p>\n<p>However, it is a tall ask of the two-time Champions League winners.
