Hearts of Oak will play as guests to Heart of Lions at the Kpando Sports Stadium in match-day 2 of the Ghana Premier League.

The Lions will play at the home for the first time and last week's results will definitely enhance their confidence to seek a win heading into this fixture.

The Phobians didn't really have a good start to the season with a very painful defeat and will have to play their hearts out to seek redemption this time.

MATCH PREVIEW 

Both teams met just last month in the Gbese Mantse Homowo Charity Cup and Hearts of Oak emerged victors via penalty shootouts after a pulsating 1-1 stalemate in regulation time.

The Giant Killers made an explosive start to the season to earn an important 1-1 draw against two-time champions Aduana Stars last season in Dormaa.

Mustapha Yakubu nearly grabbed what was a vital victory for Heart of Lions at the Nana Agyemang Badu II stadium after scoring with nine minutes to full time but Emmanuel Marfo levelled things in the dying embers to level the score.

However, the Rainbow Club shockingly did the unthinkable having lost 0-1 to newbies Basake Holy Stars last week at the Ohene Gyan Stadium.

The Nzema-based side in their debut topflight campaign, stunned the 21-time champions, thanks to a Prince Tweneboa header in just two minutes from kickoff.

TEAM NEWS

Both teams haven't really reported any major injury or suspension worries at their disposal and will have all their squad for the last game.

Coach Aboubakar Ouattara despite finding ways to break the Lion's backline, will have to keep their tabs on their former trio Michelle Sarpong, Abednego Tetteh and Kwadwo Obeng Jr- who will be leading the lines for the hosts.

PROBABLE XI

Heart of Lion: Lawrence, Fawzi, Abban, Hennessy, Seedorf, Michelle, Ishmael, Anim, Obeng Jr, Sakyi, Abednego Tetteh 

Hearts of Oak: Asare, Adramani, Ransford, Osei Asibey, Amofa, Ramzy, Amponsah, Salim, Asamoah, Hamza, Mawuli

PREDICTION

We say Heart of Lions 1-1 Hearts of Oak
