Hearts of Oak will return home to welcome another Ashanti Regional-based side Nations FC to the Ohene Gyan Stadium in a Friday night football in the first fixture of match-week 32 of the Ghana Premier League.
Both teams have been very shambolic recently and have just a win in their last five games and will be so desperate and poised to battle out for the three maximum points.
Nations FC nipped on Richard Danso's 94th minute equalizer to salvage a draw against the 'Phobians' in the first leg last December- after Hamza Issah had already struck them into the lead in Abrankese.
Hearts of Oak after the defeat to Aduana Stars, succumbed to another painful 2-0 loss to their bitter rivals Asante Kotoko last Sunday and coach Aboubakar Ouattara doesn't want to be singled out for the team's woes.
The Rainbow Club are still flirting around the relegation zone as they currently sit 14th on the table with 38 points, just two above danger.
In contrast, Nations FC after the win against Accra Lions with that spirited performance couldn't hold onto the new momentum having suffer a narrow 1-0 defeat at Aduana Stars last week.
The Eagles have now dropped from second to the fourth position on the log with 48 points- seven behind league leaders Samartex FC, who are just a win away from winning the championship for the first time.
TEAM NEWS
Both Hearts of Oak and Nations FC haven't reported any major injuries or suspension concerns from their last matches as it stands.
