The Ghana Premier League (GPL) returns this weekend with Week 24 fixtures across all centres.

Liberty Professionals will welcome Kumasi Asante Kotoko to Dansoman. Kotoko managed a narrow win over Dreams FC last week in Kumasi and will be hoping for another good result as they now lie fourth on the league table. Liberty will also count on their lead scorer Latif Blessing for some goals.

Hearts of Oak will have the opportunity to catch up with Wa All Stars as they welcome Techiman City to the Accra Sports Stadium. The Phobians lost their spot at the top of the table last week when they lost to WAFA in Sogakope. Techiman City are 12th on the table and will be hoping for survival, with just seven matches to go.

Dreams FC are back to their favourite Dawu Park and will play host to last season’s champions, Ashanti Gold. Dreams are fifth with 35 points and their opponents lie 11th with 29 points.

Aduana Stars are looking very good in this year’s league and are 3rd on 37 points. They will play Berekum Chelsea at the Dormaa Park for all three points.


Ebusua Dwarfs have been impressive ever since new coach Prosper Nartey took charge. They have moved out of the relegation zone to 9th on the table. They have a tough test against league leaders Wa All Stars at the Robert Mensah Stadium and the Wa-based side will be hoping to cement their place at the top.

Other games coming up include Bechem United against Inter Allies at Bechem while New Edubiase will take on WAFA at Tarkwa.
