Karela United coach Nurudeen Amadu expects a physically demanding encounter against Young Apostles and says he must select players capable of matching the hosts’ aggressive approach.The Passioners travel to the Wenchi Sports Stadium on Sunday, November 1, for a crucial Matchday Nine Ghana Premier League fixture as they seek to end their poor away run.Amadu believes Young Apostles will pose a difficult challenge, having observed their playing style and physical approach during the pre-season tournament.”Young Apostles are going to be tough. They are very, very aggressive. They play very physically. So, we’ll see the sort of players who are ready and can match the way they played against us in the pre-season tournament,” he said.”We know how they play. So, we have to pick players who will fit into such a game,” he added.Karela head into the encounter after suffering a 1-2 home defeat to Port City FC, leaving them 13th in the league table with nine points after eight matches.Their away form remains a major concern, having lost all four matches on the road this season.Young Apostles, meanwhile, are 17th with six points and will be equally desperate for a positive result after losing four of their last five matches.Their most recent setback was a narrow 1-2 defeat to Swedru All Blacks.With both sides struggling for consistency, Sunday’s encounter presents an important opportunity to secure points and improve their respective positions.Kick-off is scheduled for 15:00 GMT.
