The 2022/23 Ghana Premier League season is entering matchday two this weekend.
Due to Asante Kotoko’s involvement in the CAF Champions League preliminary stage, the team is not expected to be in action in the league this weekend just like it was seen on matchday 1.
Besides that, all the other eight scheduled games for the matchday will come off as planned.
On Saturday, Accra Lions will welcome Karela United to the Accra Sports Stadium in a game that should really excite fans.
Form guide:
Accra Lions – The capital-based club kicked off its campaign for this season with a shocking 1-0 defeat to new boys Kotoku Royals last weekend. The performance on the matchday was nothing to write home about.
Karela United – For the visiting team, the side recorded a narrow 1-0 victory over debuting Tamale City FC.
Feeling good and in high spirits, Karela United comes into this weekend’s game against Accra Lions as the favourites.
Player to watch:
Kelvin Andoh – The experienced winger put in a top performance on the opening weekend to help Karela United grab the win against Tamale City FC.
With his experience after playing for Elmina Sharks and Asante Kotoko in the past, he sure will be key for Karela United this season.
On Saturday, he could easily be the main man for the team from Anyinase for the matchday 2 encounter. Expect him to be key if Karela United is to secure the win.
