GPL Preview: Bechem United host Hearts in Bechem as Bolga All Stars visit Elmina Sharks

Published on: 09 July 2017

The week 21 of the 2016/2017 Ghana Premier League will get back to full gear this weekend across seven match venues. It promises to be exciting and fascinating.

Bechem United will come up against Hearts of Oak in a gritty battle on Sunday afternoon in Bechem. The Hunters will be looking to avenge their 4-2 first round mauling by the Phobians at the Accra Sports Stadium as they welcome them to the Nana Gyeabour Park.

The Hunters lie 9th on the log with 26 points while the Phobians comfortably sit 3rd with 33 points.

Both teams lost their last PL outings- Bechem away to Inter Allies (1-0) and Hearts at Home to Ash Gold (1-0).

Elmina Sharks will be seeking to deepen the woes of Bolga All Stars as both shrug it out at the Nduom Sports Complex in Elmina.

The Sea Animals lost their last PL game 1-0 to WAFA whilst the Bolga based-outfit were 3-0 losers to Liberty Professionals.

The Homers are 14th on the league standings with 21 points whereas the Visitors sit at the foot of the Table with just 12 points after 20 PL fixtures.

Bolga All Stars were 1-0 winners over Elmina Sharks in the first round of premier league.

In other PL encounters, Aduana Stars will be aiming to revive their title aspirations with a win as they invite Liberty Professionals at the Nana Agyemang Badu Park in Dormaa as Berekum Chelsea square off with Inter Allies at the Golden City Park in Berekum.

Elsewhere, Asante Kotoko will be looking to their impressive form in the second round as they entertain Medeama SC at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium in Kumasi whereas Second-Bottom Great Olympics go toe-to-toe with Wa All Stars at the Accra Sports Stadium.

Furthermore, Ebusua Dwarfs after losing to Asante Kotoko 1-0 at the Cape Coast Stadium a fortnight ago will be hoping to make amends when they face-off with Tema Youth at the Tema Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

The game between Ashanti Gold and WAFA at the Lenclay Stadium in Obuasi have been postponed due the latter's donating seven players to Black Stars Team B.
