Legon Cities can worsen plight of Dreams FC

The 2024-25 Ghana Premier League enters the second-round phase this weekend with leaders Bibiani Gold Stars trekking to the University of Ghana Stadium in Legon to play as guests of Legon Cities.

Cities are chasing their fifth win of the season and coming on the heels of the 3-0 thrashing of Dreams FC a week ago, the stakes would be high.

Coach Yaw Acheampong believes his boys are on the road to move out of the relegation zone, and home games such as this presents them with the chance to do so.

For visiting coach Stephen Frimpong Manso, his side’s performance on the road has not been anything to write home about; however, their last visit to the venue marked a turnaround as they picked all three points against Accra Hearts of Oak.

On the heels of the league leaders is Nations FC, who will be at the Nana Fosu Gyeabour Park in Bechem to battle sixth-placed Bechem United in an entertaining contest.

Accra Hearts of Oak will make a trip to the Crosby Awuah Memorial Park in Nzema Anyinase to play as guests of Basake Holy Stars

In-form Kumasi Asante Kotoko will look to secure a second consecutive victory when they host Karela United at the Baba Yara Stadium.

In other games, Young Apostles host Nsoatreman FC in the Bono derby at the Wenchi Stadium, Berekum Chelsea play Vision FC at the Golden City Park, Heart of Lions lock horns with Aduana Stars while defending champions Samartex 1996 slug it out with struggling Dreams FC at the Nsenkyire Arena.
