Goldstars dare Aduana Stars at Dormaa
League leaders Dormaa Aduana Stars will look to stretch the lead on the betPawa Premier League tomorrow when they host Bibiani GoldStars at the Nana Agyemang Badu Park in Dormaa for their match day 10 clash.
Having amassed 18 points from nine games, winning six games and losing three, last year’s runner-up is eyeing the ultimate this time and has started with the right pace.
Coach Yaw Acheampong’s side believe this season will be theirs, after recording 100 per cent results at home in four games.
Tomorrow’s fixture may take the same form as the previous ones.
The away form of Goldstars has been nothing to write home about, earning just two points from a possible 12.
However, in four games between the two sides, Goldstars possess a better record, winning twice, drawn one and lost once against Aduana FC.
Last season’s fixture at the same venue ended 2-0 in favour of Aduana, an outcome that will remind Coach Michael Osei to map out a superior game plan or return from Dormaa empty handed.
Nsoatreman FC, with a game in hand, would look to keep the heat on the leaders as they welcome Real Tamale United to the Nana Koramansah Sports Complex in Nsoatre tomorrow.
Nsoatreman FC suffered a 2-1 defeat last Monday at the Accra Sports Stadium against Great Olympics, a defeat Coach Maxwell Konadu stated was behind them as they aim a swift return tomorrow.
Five points separates the two sides with the visitors lying a distant 13th spot with 11 points from nine games.
Suffering a 4-0 hammering in the hands of Nations FC in their last away game, the Coach of RTU Abdulai Abdul Mumin, is approaching this game with cautious optimism, knowing how strong the host can be at home.
Nsoatreman recorded a 1-0 win at home last season and with their strong start this season, they look set to record another win over the visitors.
Accra Hearts of Oak will return to the Accra Sports Stadium tomorrow to host Legon Cities in a local derby expected to be full of thrills.
Struggling Kumasi Asante Kotoko will trek to the Nsenkyire Sports Complex in Samreboi to face fifth-placed Samartex FC
