2024/25 Ghana Premier League: Week 2 Match Preview – Heart of Lions vs Hearts of Oak

Published on: 14 September 2024

Hearts of Oak are eager to bounce back from their disappointing start to the 2024/25 Ghana Premier League season as they prepare to face Heart of Lions on Sunday afternoon in a highly anticipated encounter.

The Phobians suffered a shocking 1-0 defeat in their opening match against newly promoted Basake Holy Stars at home. A second-minute strike by Prince Tweneboah was enough for the visitors to claim all three points, leaving Hearts of Oak fans frustrated and disrupting the post-match conference.

The defeat has placed Hearts of Oak's coach, Aboubakar Ouattara, under immense pressure, with reports suggesting he was given a five-game ultimatum to turn things around. However, the club’s management has released a statement debunking these rumors, expressing their full support for the Ivorian tactician. Despite this, Ouattara will be aware of the need to deliver a convincing performance to win back the support of the disgruntled fans.

Heart of Lions, on the other hand, will be feeling confident after an impressive 1-1 draw against Aduana FC at the Nana Agyemang Badu I Park. Their solid performance will be a boost as they aim to secure a positive result in front of their home crowd.

The match will kick off at 3:00 pm at the Kpando Sports Stadium, with both teams seeking to make a statement in Week 2 of the league.
