Bechem United will host Hearts of Oak in an outstanding week 20 fixture of the Ghana Premier League on the dusk of Wednesday, March 19, 2025, at the Nana Fosu Gyeabour Park.
The 'Phobians' proved superior in the first leg having won by 2-0 in the capital courtesy goals from Hamza Issah and Ransford Mensah in the first leg.
The Hunters have now lost all their last three games against the giants and will be hoping to make amends this time around as they head in with nothing but a winning mindset.
There's going to be a performance from two exciting musicians Ma Joi and Quamz Dive at the stadium before kickoff signifying how the optimistic the 2016 FA Cup champions are in snatching all three points.
MATCH PREVIEW
Bechem United halted their two-game losing streak with a resounding 2-0 win over Vision FC, thanks to a stunning brace from young sensation Yaw Annor.
With ten wins so far, the Neon-Greens have now risen to the sixth position with 33 points and a win in this fixture will see them climb up into the top four.
On the other hand, Hearts of Oak suffered a very painful 0-1 home loss over the weekend against Dreams FC - one many a Ghanaian football faithful never anticipated.
18-year-old Abdul Razak Salifu scored in just four minutes from kickoff and that was enough to down the 'Phobians' after full time despite pushing harder for the equalizer.
Last week's loss saw Aboubakar Ouattara's men missing out on a potential climb to the top and wouldn't want to slip again this time as it could see them drop from the top four.
TEAM NEWS
Coach Kweku Danso will miss the service of Augustine Okrah due to injury coming into the game
There's currently lack of motivation in the Hearts of Oak if the earlier reports are something to go by as it has been widely reported that the players haven't received their salaries in the last two months.
Theophilus Collinson returned from the suspension but couldn't make the starting line up the last time and will likely get the nod this time.
Goalkeeper Benjamin Asare is out due to national assignment
