Kotoko, Gold Stars to thrill Bibiani fans

 Match day 32 games of the Ghana Premier League (GPL) will be honoured this weekend with exciting clashes across the various centres.

It started yesterday with an Accra derby involving Accra Hearts of Oak against relegation threatened, Accra Lions, at the Accra Sports Stadium.

The Phobians would hope to maintain their winning streak against the Accra Lions side that would need a win to boost their fight to avoid relegation.

In Bibiani, Gold Stars FC face a difficult task as they host Asante Kotoko in the weekend’s biggest fixture.

The outcome of this clash can define their status as both sides aim to stake claim to the title.

Goldstars suffered a surprise defeat two weeks ago, losing to another relegation-threatened side, Karela United, and need the win to strengthen their grip at the top.

But Kotoko would be in no mood to let the points slip through their fingers, knowing that catching up on the leaders with only two matches would be a difficult task.

It would be an exciting clash both sides would give their very best but the side with the best attack would emerge victorious.

League leaders, Nations FC, would welcome defending champions, FC Samartex 1996, to the Dr Kwame Kyei Sports Complex in a clash that could shape the final standings.

Elsewhere, Dreams FC return to the Tub Astro Turf aiming to bounce back against Berekum Chelsea, while Aduana FC take on Legon Cities at the Nana Agyemang Badu I Park in Dormaa.

In Bechem, Premier League newcomers, Basake Holy Stars, face a stern challenge against Bechem United at the Nana Gyeabour Park. The Holy Stars are desperate for points as they fight to stay afloat in the top flight.

At the bottom of the table, Vision FC lock horns with fellow strugglers Karela United in a must-win encounter for both sides. With the season nearing its end, this match could prove pivotal in the battle for survival.

Young Apostles, still reeling from their recent loss to Vision FC, aim to return to winning ways when they welcome a resurgent Heart of Lions side to the Wenchi Stadium. A victory would provide a timely boost as they seek to consolidate their Premier League status.
