On Saturday, May 20, 2023, Accra Lions will host league-leading Aduana FC at the Accra Sports Stadium for game 31 of the Ghana Premier League.
Given their recent slump of form, the hosts must win to ensure their spot in the Ghana Premier League for another year.
The Accra-based team has only won one of their last seven games and has now dropped three straight contests.
With four games remaining in the season, the bad run of play has caused Lions to plummet to ninth position in the league standings.
Aduana Stars, who are in search of their third league title, are now leading the standings by two points over Medeama.
Aduana has a strong road record this year, but in their previous five games, they have battled to maintain consistency, winning two, drawing two, and losing one.
The talismanic Abass Samari and captain Dominic Nsobila must play, while Seidu Bassit must regain his scoring touch for the Accra Lions. Emmanuel Gyamfi and Joseph Addo, on the other hand, have experience, while Isaac Mintah, a forward, is anticipated to be a threat to the Lions’ defence.
Lions defeated Aduana in Dormaa to earn a crucial point, and they’ll be trying to win the second encounter with the former champions in Accra.
