Berekum Chelsea will host Accra Lions at the Nana Agyeman Badu I Park on Sunday in a crucial Ghana Premier League encounter.
Match Preview
Berekum Chelsea come into this match following a 2-1 defeat against Karela United. Samuel Boadu’s side have had a mixed run in their last five games (W2, D1, L2) and currently sit 8th on the league table with 25 points. Chelsea have scored 16 goals and conceded 17 so far this season.
At home, Chelsea have been solid, ranking as the seventh-best home team with two wins and two draws in their last five matches.
They will be confident of extending their unbeaten home record against Accra Lions, a side they haven’t lost to at home since 2021.
Accra Lions, meanwhile, are enduring a dismal campaign. They sit at the bottom of the table with just 16 points from 19 games, winning the fewest matches in the league (3), drawing 7, and losing 9.
They have scored only 12 goals and conceded 20, making them one of the league’s weakest attacking sides. Their away form is particularly concerning, with four losses and one draw in their last five away outings.
