Ethiopia Coffee face Hawassa City Monday trying to find their way without Abubekher Nasir but it is Hawassa complete with Mujib Kassim who have môre worries.
When you have successfully secured the services of one of the most prolific strikers in the land, expectations are high but Hawassa have yet to hit high notes after two weeks.
Ethiopia Coffee presents the motivation for Hawassa to signal their intentions as predicted by Mujib but they know that Coffee will always be Coffee, a formidable toe.
Coffee May have lost Nasir's goals but they have recruited some of the top marksmen with Mesfin Tafesse arriving from Hawassa along with the daring Biruk Beyene.
Beyene and Tafese have been good leaders over the last few years and when they click, Coffee attack will be formidable once again.
In midfield, they have strengthened with Chaka Teshite and the mercurial Abdulkerim Worku.
Hawassa signed Seid Hassen who followed Mujib from Fasil, and Solomon Wodessa from Bahir Dar.
A win will do Hawassa a world of good after losing 1-2 to Legetafo Legedadi while Ethiopia Coffee played out a 0-0 draw with Wolaitta Dicha
