Hohoe United will play their first home game in Ghana Premier League this weekend when they welcome Young Apostles to the Hohoe Stadium in an epic matchday 2 encounter.
While Hohoe United failed to pick a win in their first game but are highly motivated this time around, Young Apostles lost at home and very desperate for redemption this time around.
MATCH PREVIEW
The ‘Muje Gabah’ were in the capital last week to take on giants Hearts of Oak in what was a very difficult game but still stood their grounds and secured a draw despite finishing the game with ten men.
Hohoe United’s performance in their first ever game in the topflight is evident that they are in to establish themselves as a mainstay and nothing else
On the opposition side, Young Apostles after flirting with relegation last season, made a very poor start to the new campaign and are very much aware they will have to up the ante this time
The Blue and Yellows struggled at the fortress last week at Wenchi Sports Stadium following a 0-2 home loss to 2023 champions Medeama SC and are very much determined to win this time as they look to fight back on track as early as possible.
TEAM NEWS
Coach Tijani Abdul Rahim Bashiru is coming up against his former club again and has a full strength team for the game except Solomon Adomako who is suspended for the game.
Skipper Usman Safianu was outstanding in their first game and made the best XI of matchday 1 and is expected to serge on with the same performance going forward.
Abu Hanan for Young Apostles has no any major injury or suspension concerns for the game.
