The ex-Porcupine Warriors forward shares his thoughts on the club's meeting with the Ivorian outfit in the continental inter-club competitionÃ‚Â

Former Asante Kotoko forward Yahaya Mohammed has urged the club to avoidÃ‚Â complacency to prevent any negative surprises when they host Ivorian side San Pedro in the play-off round of the Caf Confederation Cup on Sunday.

The Porcupine Warriors are set to battle their West African neighbours for a place in the group stage of the continental championship.

A first leg encounter, Sunday's fixture comes off a week to the return leg away in Cote d'Ivoire in a week's time.

Ã¢Â€ÂœThey [San Pedro] take every match as a final match, including friendly matches," Yahaya told Kessben FM.

Ã¢Â€ÂœKotoko must beat San Pedro by more than two goals if they want to progress to the next stage of the competition.

Ã¢Â€ÂœThey know how to play away matches so Kotoko should not underestimate them."

Victory over the 2004 finalists Kotoko will be another major feat for the Ivorians following a 3-0 aggregate triumph over Santoba FC of Guinea 3-0 in the last round.

The Ghanaians play in the Confederation Cup after dropping from the Champions League following a 3-2 aggregate loss to Tunisia's Etoile du Sahel in a first round tie.

Seeking a second straight appearance in the group stage of the Confederation Cup, Kotoko will be without central defender Habib Mohammed for Sunday's game due to suspension.Ã‚Â Ã‚Â
