Karela United will welcome Medeama in matchday 9 of the Ghana Premier League on Wednesday as the domestic top-flight returns after World Cup break.
The Ghana Premier League had to go on a one-month break because of the biggest soccer mundial which was hosted by Qatar, where Argentina emerged as winners on Sunday.
The Anyinase-based club who are said to be in financial crisis host neighbours Medeama in an explosive Western derby on the return of the Ghana Premier League.
Karela United will be hoping to return to winning ways after suffering a narrow home defeat to King Faisal before the break.
Bismark Mensah’s side have lost once at home since last season – a 1-0 loss to King Faisal 1-0 on Matchday 8.
Medeama SC are unbeaten in their last two games, drawing one against Gold Stars 0-0 and winning against Kotoku Royals 1-0.
After eight rounds of matches, Karela United are 14th on the table with 10 points from the available 24.
Meanwhile, the Yellow and Mauve are 12th on the table with 10 points and will be hoping to secure points at away.
