FC AshantiGold ’04 will be aiming to continue their impressive home form when they welcome Karela United FC to the Len Clay Sports Stadium in Sunday’s Ghana Premier League fixture.
The Miners have made a solid return to the top flight, sitting seventh on the league table with 15 points after 10 matches. Although they were held to a goalless draw by Young Apostles last weekend, AshantiGold remain one of the division’s most consistent teams, having recorded two wins, two draws and just one defeat in their last five league outings.
Their success has largely been built on their impressive performances at home. AshantiGold are unbeaten in five league matches at the Len Clay Sports Stadium this season, winning three and drawing two, and they will be determined to keep that remarkable run intact.
Karela United, meanwhile, travel to Obuasi in desperate need of a positive result after enduring a difficult spell. The visitors are without a win in their last four league matches, managing two draws and two defeats during that run.
Goals have also been hard to come by for Karela, who have failed to score in three of those four matches, highlighting their struggles in the final third.
Their away record offers little encouragement, with the side collecting just one point from five league games on the road, making Sunday’s assignment one of their toughest tests of the campaign.
With AshantiGold looking to strengthen their push towards the top six and Karela United battling to revive their season, an intriguing contest awaits in Obuasi. However, the hosts’ outstanding home form and the visitors’ poor away record make AshantiGold favourites to claim all three points.
