Hearts of Oak have been put in a tight corner after a 0-0 draw at Medeama on Sunday sent them into the relegation zone.
The Phobians are now second-bottom in 15th position after failing to get a win at the T&A Park in Tarkwa.
Medeama themselves are hanging by a thread by placed tenth on the table but one point away from the relegation mark.
Home wins by Bechem United, Heart of Lions, Great Olympics and New Edubiase did not help Hearts.
But the Phobians can improve their stock with victory over Berekum Chelsea on 06 September when the league returns.
