For the upcoming matchday, there will be matches played on Friday, December 30, through to Monday, January 2, 2023.
On Sunday, the biggest game of the matchday will come off at the Nana Agyemang Badu Park when Aduana Stars host Asante Kotoko.

Form:
Aduana Stars go into this weekend’s clash top of the league log with 19 points from 9 matches.
Unfortunately, the team lacks consistency. In the last five matches, the team has won three games but hasn’t won in consecutive fashion.
The trend suggests that they will drop points in the match against Asante Kotoko especially coming back from a 1-0 win against Great Olympics in the last outing.
The opponent, Asante Kotoko are in third on the Ghana Premier League table and trails the host by just two points.
With three points in the last five games, one draw and one defeat with no problems with consistency, the Porcupine Warriors will be aiming for a win this weekend.
Probable starting eleven – Aduana Stars
Joseph Addo (G), Kwame Adom Frimpong, Sam Adams, Bright Adjei, Frank Owusu, Godfred Poku Wakii, Isaac Mintah, Alex Boakye, Bright Enchil, Stephen Anokye, Emmanuel Gyamfi
Probable starting eleven – Asante Kotoko
Frederick Asare (G), Christopher Nettey, Yussif Mubarik, Sherif Mohammed, John Tedeku, Richard Boadu (C), Enoch Morrison, Isaac Oppong, Georges Mfegue, Samuel Boateng, Steven Mukwala.
Predicted scoreline:
While the lack of consistency could cost Aduana Stars, the team can be motivated by the fact that they have a superior head-to-head advantage over Asante Kotoko going back five matches.
Aduana Stars 1-0 Asante Kotoko
Player to Watch:
With two goals and an assist in the last two matches of Asante Kotoko, Ugandan striker Steven Mukwala will be the main man this weekend.
