Hearts of Oak are stepping up their preparations for the resumption of the Ghana Premier League with a friendly match against Ghana’s U-20 side, the Black Satellites, at the University of Ghana Stadium, Legon.
Following three weeks of inactivity due to recent hooliganism incidents, the Ghana Football Association announced on Wednesday, February 26, that the league will resume on March 7.
Currently fourth in the Ghana Premier League standings, Hearts of Oak are intensifying their efforts as they gear up for the restart.
The 2022 FA Cup champions were eliminated from this year’s FA Cup after a 4-3 defeat to Division One side Golden Kick on Sunday, February 23, 2025.
For Hearts of Oak head coach Aboubakar Ouattara, this match presents a valuable opportunity to assess his squad ahead of their upcoming clash with the Young Apostles.
Meanwhile, the Black Satellites will also look to use this game to boost their morale, having not played a major friendly or competitive match since their 2-0 win over Niger in October 2024.
