HEARTS OF OAK VS MEDEAMA SC

Hearts of Oak’s title defense continues to get more difficult after each game week. The Phobians failed to secure maximum points when they visited Berekum Chelsea in their last game, which ended goalless. They are placed 6th with 33 points, some 13 points behind leaders Kotoko, who they will be playing next in Kumasi after this fixture. This will be Samuel Boadu’s fourth time of meeting his former club in a match. He has managed to win 2 and lost 1. The first-round fixture of this game saw Hearts lose by a goal to nil through a late penalty kick converted by former Hearts player, Vincent Atinga. Despite the absence of Sulley Muntari, Hearts have a boost to their squad with the return of the player with the most assist for Hearts this season, Salifu Ibrahim after recovering from a toe injury. Hearts seem to perform well at home, with a record of 6 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss.

Medeama SC will seek to do the double over Hearts this season as they travel to face off at the Accra Sports Stadium. The “Yellow and Mauves” stunned Hearts by a goal to nil when they visited the Akoon Park in Tarkwa in the first round. They are one place ahead of their opponents and three points clear of them. They have lost 5, drawn twice and won twice in their away encounters this season. Perhaps, the like of Vincent Atinga and Ahmed Toure will sting the rainbow boys in their backyard to further deepen their woes this season.
