Habib Mohammed has also been ruled out for several weeks following an ankle injury on both legs in their epic fixture against Hearts of Oak two weeks ago.
Mohammed has been sidelined for weeks and expected to resume training before the end of the 2020/21 season.
Midfielder Emmanuel Keyekeh has failed to recover from an injury despite commencing light training on Thursday morning at Adako Jachie.
Duo Evans Adomako and Black Stars defender, Ismail Abdul Ganiyu are also racing time to be declared fit for the all-important fixture.
Adomako rejoined his teammates at training on Thursday but he trained alone as part of the recovery process.

Asante Kotoko are aiming for a win over Bechem United to keep their hopes of winning the 2020/21 Ghana Premier League title alive.
They sit 2nd on the league log with 57 points.
