Asante Kotoko left Accra on Sunday morning for Sudan to face Al Hilal in the qualifying round of the CAF Champions League final.
Acting coach Johnson Smith appointed a 20-man squad for the assignment that seems Herculean on paper.
Kotoko will transit through Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, before connecting to Omdurman for the crucial exam.
The Porcupine Warriors travel to the North African country on Sunday, hoping a miracle will advance to the next stage of the competition.
They were defeated 1-0 by the Sudanese giants in Accra last month in the first leg of the second round.
The 20-man squad does not include midfielder Mudasiru Salifu, who recently returned to training after recovering from injury.
Midfielder duo Habib Mohammed and Emmanuel Keyekeh also failed to make the cut.
However, players like Muniru Sulley, Fabio Gama, Kwame Opoku, Razak Abalora, Emmanuel Gyamfi and Felix Annan are on the team.
