Medeama SC will look to extend their advantage at the top of the Ghana Premier League when they visit bottom side Young Apostles at Wenchi Sports Stadium on Sunday.
The Matchweek 11 fixture brings together teams at opposite ends of the table. Medeama have collected 21 points from 10 matches after six wins, three draws and one defeat, while Young Apostles have eight points from two wins, two draws and six losses.
Young Apostles go into the match seeking a first victory in their past fixture after drawing 1-1 with Ashanti Gold last weekend. Abu Abdul-Hanaan’s team will hope that result provides a platform for a stronger performance, although their home form will need to improve if they are to trouble the league leaders.
The Agya Na Ɔwɔ Tumi Boys remain at the foot of the standings and need points to move away from the relegation zone. Their opponents, known as the Yellow and Mauves, are instead focused on protecting their position at the summit after an impressive opening to the campaign.
Team news
Medeama head coach Ibrahim Tanko is away with the Black Stars, where he is serving as a second interim assistant coach. His assistants Nana Yaw Amankwah and Stephen Gurah are expected to oversee the technical team in his absence.
Neither club has reported major injury or suspension concerns, meaning both are expected to have their key players available.
Young Apostles’ possible starting line-up is: Osman Wahabu (GK), Mathias Amegbe (DF), Issah Nyaabila (DF), Antwi Dacosta (DF), Abdul Mohammed Musah (DF), Samuel Adamu (MF), Ramzy Abubakar (MF), Agyemang Kingsford (MF), Iddrisu Huziaf (MF), John Atta Junior Afram (MF), Huseine Issah (FW).
Medeama SC’s possible starting line-up is: Felix Kyei (GK), Yussif Mubarik (DF), Jacob Mensah (DF), Safianu Usman (DF), Ebenezer Adade (DF), Prosper Boakye Owusu (MF), Emmanuel Owusu (MF), Prince Owusu (MF), Prosper Boakye Owusu (MF), Kelvin Nkrumah (FW), Kingsley Braye (FW).
Medeama’s form and league position make them favourites to take all three points, while Young Apostles will rely on home advantage to produce an upset. The visitors are predicted to win 2-0, with Kelvin Nkrumah expected to score first before Kingsley Braye adds a second for the Tarkwa gonzo’s.
The match will be played at Wenchi Sports Stadium, Young Apostles’ home ground, with kick-off scheduled for 3:00pm Ghana time on Sunday, November 15, 2026.
