2020/21 Ghana Premier League: Week 24 Match Preview - Berekum Chelsea vs. AshantiGold

Published on: 11 May 2021

Berekum Chelsea will lock horns with AshantiGold SC at the Golden City Park on Wednesday in a matchday 24 fixture as they are keen on returning to winning ways.

Chelsea have lost all of their last three matches in the Ghana Premier League and that has taken them closer to the relegation zone.

They lost Liberty Professionals and Aduana Stars at away and succumbed to WAFA SC at home.

The Bibires are currently placed at the 13th position with 27 points from 23 games, they are only four points above the drop.

A victory over AshantiGold in the midweek will be very important for Chelsea since they aim at avoiding any threats of relegation.

Chelsea have never lost at home to AshantiGold in the premiership since they joined in 2009 after ten meetings.

The Blues have won 7 and drawn 3 of the home meetings with the Miners.

Versatile midfielder Emmanuel Owusu is expected back to full fitness to face AshantiGold on Wednesday.

AshantiGold conceded a very late goal to throw away a possible victory in last weekend's game against Eleven Wonders FC as they drew 1-1 at the Len Clay Stadium.

The Miners are journeying to Berekum to make amends from the slumber in their last two matches.

AshantiGold are lying 10th position on the league standings with 31 points from 23 matches despite being the highest scoring side this campaign.

Their last away game in the premiership saw them lose 2-1 to Elmina Sharks FC after opening the scoring.

AshantiGold have not fared well in their visits to Berekum since Chelsea entered the Ghana Premier League.

They have never won there and would want to change the status quo on Wednesday with a victory against the Bibires.

Assistant coach Thomas Duah is expected to lead the team once again since the head coach role remains vacant after French trainer Romain Folz absconded.

Duah has all his players available for selection on Wednesday.
