WAFA SC

West African Football Academy want to end the first half of the season at the apex of the league table- their best ever first round performance in the top flight.

They are levelled on points with Aduana Stars and a win over Inter Allies FC on Saturday at the Sogakope Park will see them cement the top spot for the closure of the first round.

The Academy outfit had their seven matches winning streak ended last Monday when they succumbed to Hearts of Oak by 2-0.

A return to winning ways on the cards this weekend.

The season's top scorer Daniel Lomotey Agbloe is expected to return to the squad for Saturday's game.

He didn't make the trip to Accra last Monday.

Inter Allies FC are hoping to continue their perfect record at the Sogakope park when they visit the league leaders WAFA SC.

They have never lost at the venue for Saturday's encounter after two games.

Their recent form have seen them climb the league table to the tenth position following a 3-0 drubbing of newcomers Bolga All Stars last Sunday at the El Wak stadium.

The Eleven Is To One side will travel to the Volta region without crocked defender Uriah Elikem Kporvi.

He has been out with an injury for almost three months now.

With the exception of the centre back, coach Prince Owusu has all other players available for selection on Saturday with Ishmael Ntefuni hoping to keep his starting role after a debut premiership goal last weekend.
