Share

Hearts of Oak, Nsoatreman FC will cross swords in what will be an enticing Ghana Premier League match-week 12 clash at the University of Ghana Stadium on the evening of Saturday, November 23, 2024.

The ‘Phobians’ are in a very good form and will be gearing towards continuing and maintaining their impressive winning streak while Nsoatreman are also desperate to get a win in this fixture to finally seek redemption. 

MATCH PREVIEW 

Hearts of Oak head into this fixture with so much motivation coming from their previous matches with some string of great results including a vital 0-1 win over Karela United last week in Tamale.

The Rainbow Club made a very explosive start to the game and opened the scoring account in just two minutes from kickoff through young-sensation Hamza Issah and stayed through to preserve their lead until full time.

The win has seen the giants rise into the top half of the table as they currently sit on the fourth position with 18 points after 11 matches.

On the opposition end, Nsoatreman FC got held by Aduana Stars to a pulsating 1-1 draw last week at home after they had lost 1-0 away at Nations FC a week prior.

Morrison Anokye’s 21st minute lead sparked some confidence last week among the home fans but was cancelled out subsequently even before half-time as the game produced no goal again until full time.

The ‘Efiri Tete Amanaso’ side having stayed winless in their last four games, are lurking around the 12th position with 12 points at the moment and are hoping to return on winning ways this time.
