Hearts of Oak will look to turn their fortunes around when they play as hosts to Bechem United in the Ghana Premier League on Sunday at the University of Ghana Stadium.

The Phobians are presently enduring one of their worst starts to a season after suffering back-to-back defeats in the first two matches of the campaign.

Hearts lost 1-0 to newbies Basake Holy Stars in Accra on the opening before succumbing to Heart of Lions with a 2-0 defeat last week.

Also, Aboubakar Ouattara's side is yet to find the back of the net after the two games. They are keen on breaking the hoodoo on Sunday when the Hunters come to town.

Ouattara's position will be under serious threat if Hearts fail to get the maximum points against Bechem in the matchday three fixture.

Even though Bechem are unbeaten since the beginning of the 2024-25 season, they have yet to record a win, drawing all of the two games.

The Hunters held Nations FC to a scoreless stalemate in the season's opener and drew goalless again with rivals Aduana Stars in Bechem last weekend.

Bechem travel to the capital in search of their first goal and first win of the campaign against the Phobians in Sunday's clash.
