FAC: Hearts, Kotoko face Danbort, Asokwa Deportivo test

The round of 64 stage of the MTN FA Cup will be honoured over the weekend with tricky fixtures for Premier League giants including Asante Kotoko, Medeama SC and Hearts of Oak.

In Accra, Hearts of Oak will be hoping to record a win over city rivals Danbort FC at the Accra Sports Stadium tomorrow.
