According to Uncle T United president, Mr Isaac Tetteh (TT Brothers), who was a former Hearts management member, the clash offers his side an opportunity to avenge the 0-1 defeat they tasted in a friendly at Pobiman a few months ago.
"I see the draw as an opportune time to pay Hearts in their own coin. You remember we lost painfully to Hearts due to a defensive error; we see Wednesday's game as an opportunity to teach them a soccer lesson," said Mr Tetteh.
Uncle T United faces a rejuvenated Hearts side which won five of their last six matches to help them win Group B of the Normalisation Committee Special Competition. However, the Phobians cannot underrate the potential of the Division One side which can cause an upset.
In Kumasi, Asante Kotoko, who came second in Group A behind Ashantigold and won the Otumfuo Cup at the expense of visiting Asec Mimosas of Cote d’Ivoire last Sunday, will face Division One side, Real Tamale United (RTU), in a tricky encounter.
