Regulars John Mensah, Laryea Kingston, Michael Essien and Sulley Muntari are unavailable for the tie, but Milo is upbeat about the chances of his team.
Meanwhile, the technical handlers of the Black Stars are still awaiting the arrival of two players, Eric Addo of PSV Eindhoven and Haminu Dramani of Russian side, Locomotiv Moscow.
