2024/25 Ghana Premier League: Week 17 Match Preview - Heart of Lions vs. Nations FC

Published on: 18 January 2025

Heart of Lions are determined to end the first round of the Ghana Premier League as league leaders when they host Nations FC on matchday 17 this Sunday at the Kpando Sports Stadium.

The Lions remain at the summit of the table following an impressive run, suffering only two defeats in their last 23 league matches.

They aim to consolidate their top spot with a strong performance in front of their home fans.

Despite a 3-0 setback to Bechem United in their previous game, Bashir Hayford's team is eager to bounce back and maintain their winning momentum.

Remarkably, Lions have not lost at home in the league since November 18, 2023. During this period, they have played 19 home matches, winning their last five consecutively.

Meanwhile, Nations FC, currently third on the table, are just one point behind the Lions. A win on Sunday would see them leapfrog their opponents to claim the top spot.

With two wins and a draw in their last three outings, Nations head into this clash with confidence.

Under Kassim Mingle Ocansey, they boast a strong away record, having suffered only two defeats in their last eight matches on the road, including four victories.

The stage is set for a thrilling encounter as both teams look to establish dominance at this critical point in the season.
