Bechem United will host Dreams FC at the Nana Fosu Gyeabour Park this Sunday, aiming to secure their first victory of the season.
The Hunters have had a frustrating start, recording two draws and one defeat, which leaves them languishing in 14th place with just 2 points. A win this weekend is crucial for turning their fortunes around, as they risk becoming early relegation candidates.
Dreams FC, currently sitting in 10th with 3 points, have also struggled to find a winning formula, having drawn all three of their matches so far. Their last outing saw them salvage a point against Heart of Lions, thanks to a late goal from Joseph Esso.
Despite remaining unbeaten, coach Karim Zito acknowledges the challenge of facing Bechem United away, where his team has never secured a victory. “It won’t be easy. Bechem is not a favorable ground for us. The best we’ve done there is a draw, but we are going all out with the mentality to win,” Zito stated ahead of the match.
Historically, Bechem United has had the upper hand in this fixture, winning four of their last six encounters against Dreams FC. Furthermore, Bechem boasts a solid home record, remaining unbeaten in eight of their last nine league matches at home.
Both teams have shown a tendency for slow starts, with Bechem’s last six games ending in draws at halftime, while Dreams FC has gone unbeaten at halftime in 12 consecutive Premier League matches.
Dreams FC’s away form has also been concerning, with just one win in their last 13 Premier League trips. However, they will be looking to change that narrative with a first-ever win in Bechem.
