Accra Lions entertain Nations FC at the University of Ghana Stadium aiming to get back on winning ways in the Premier League on Saturday.
Lions are still enduring a miserable form in the league this season with just a single win in 12 outings (D6, L5). Last season’s second-placed team are rooted at the bottom of the table with just 9 points, having scored 7 and conceded 11 in the process.
Lions head into this fixture with an unbeaten record in their last five home league games and will hope to secure their second win this season on Saturday.
Nations FC recorded their first ever home defeat in the league after suffering 1-0 loss to Berekum Chelsea at the Dr. Kwame Kyei Sports Complex on match day 12. The defeat ends their winning streak of four successive matches in their last five appearances (W4, L1). The Abrankese lads are lying 2nd in the table with 22 points. They’ve scored the most goals in the league currently (13) and conceded the joint lowest (4). Coach Kassim Mingle Ocansey’s side are the best away side in the league and will be keen to grab all the spoils against Accra Lions on Saturday.
Accra Lions have played Nations FC once at home in the league since the Abrankese lads gained promotion into the top-flight last season with Nations FC winning 1-0.
