Medeama SC are out to look for a morale-booster following their back to back defeats when they host defending champions Wa All Stars at the T &A Park. 

The Yellow and Mauves suffered a 1-0 narrow loss to coastal rivals Ebusua Dwarfs last Monday- their first defeat to the Mysterious Club since 2013.

Experienced winger Latif Salifu is available to make his first bow for Tarkwa based side after receiving his International Transfer Certificate last week whereas Bennett Ofori makes a return from injury.

Defending champions Wa All Stars saw their title defence hopes shove up after two victories in a row including the Northern derby in midweek.

The Northern Blues had it easy when they beat Bolga All Stars 3-1 at Kasalgu last Wednesday with Richard Arthur scoring again.

The striker has netted three times in four league games.

Defensive duo Hafiz Adams and Nicholas Mensah are still out with injuries. They expected back in early April. They has missed all league games this season.

Kwaku Asuandzie Baffour suffered a serious injury last Sunday against Inter Allies FC and is out of the game.
