GHANA DUO SET TO FACE EACH OTHER IN LONDON DERBY

Ghana Black Stars' duo, Michael Essien and Derek Boateng could face each other on Saturday, when Fulham visit Chelsea at Stamford Bridge in the English Premier League. Michael Essien is yet to play a competitive game for Jose Mourinho's side this season and would be hoping for a debut in his second spell at Chelsea, whereas Derek Boateng also has just a handful of games to boast of under Martin Jol. Derek made a switch to the English side this summer, from Ukrainian's Dnipro, but has struggled to settle just like his country-mate Michael Essien also fresh from a loan at Real Madrid. Both would be hoping to get the chance to play a part in Saturday's London derby. Michael Essien who was left out of Chelsea's Champions League squad is hoping for a chance to prove a point to Mourinho according to chelseafc.com in his last interview. AGN understand that, these two midfielders are working hard enough to earn a place in the Ghana team, ahead of their final World Cup playoff against Egypt in October.
