“They had a good campaign and without a doubt, they have quality players. In the Premier League, they held us to a goalless game at the Accra Sports Stadium, and at Bechem, we played a 1-1 draw.
“But this is the FA and many have touted Bechem United to win the trophy because they are in good form. We are underdogs and we are fine with that but I believe the players will prove their critics wrong on Sunday.
“I am confident we will defend our trophy on Sunday despite the underdog tag,” he added.
The much-anticipated game has been scheduled to kick off at 15:00GMT.
