Preview: Tricky midweek games for big sides

The Glo Premier League continues with the first midweek fixtures of a long season scheduled for the match-day-6 games.

High-flying Hearts of Oak have the opportunity to build on their lead at the top when they travel to Cape Coast to face Ebusua Dwarfs.

The Phobians are currently two points clear and go to the Robert Mensah Stadium on the back of an impressive run and will be fired up for the challenge. Both sides are unbeaten after five matches in the league and their clash could go either way.

Asante Kotoko, after being dethroned at the top by their rivals, Hearts, over the weekend have a home match against Mighty Jets. For the Porcupine Warriors, it’s a much-needed win to keep them in sight of the summit.

Wa All Stars will attempt to rediscover their form at home when Berekum Arsenal comes visiting.

Berekum Chelsea will host one of the big winners from the last matches, Tema Youth, at the Golden City Park.

Both teams recorded high scoring wins ahead of their meeting which will mark Hans Van Der Plyum's first home game for the champions.

Heart of Lions will be aiming to maintain their form which secured them a win over the weekend when they travel to the Agyeman-Badu Park to meet Aduana Stars, a game live on Metro TV at 3:00pm.

Bottom side Bechem United will be pushing to win their first game when they meet Liberty Professionals at the Carl Reindorf Park.

New Edubiase, after their painful loss to Hearts of Oak will be picking up the pieces when they welcome Wassaman to the Gyamfi's Park.

Still grappling with their slow start to the season, both Medeama and AshantiGold will meet at the Sekondi Sports Stadium in a 6:15 kick off live on SuperSports. The two sides have lacked consistency so far in the league and anything less than a win for either side will increase the pressure on their respective coaches.
