The duo is coming into this fixture with contrasting domestic forms, hopes, and aspirations, the home side are brewing with loads of confidence after doing the impossible against WAFA SC, who had not lost a match at the Sogakope Red Bull Arena in over six years.

Coach Annor Walker and his boys sit 2nd a point adrift Kumasi Asante Kotoko, they have played above expectations this season for a team that was nearing the exit of the premier league a season past but for its truncation. 

The likes of Gladson Awako, Maxwell Quaye, Ashie-Quaye Samuel, and Kasim Razak have been impressive pushing the club to its second premier league trophy. 

The Ogya boys are coming into this fixture on the back of a vital win against regional rivals Berekum Chelsea at the Nana Agyemang Badu park II, they lie 8th on the log with 33 points something they will be looking to increase tomorrow.

Last week’s matchday twenty-three (23) saw Medeama SC lost some grounds on their title ambitions when they failed to score past Liberty Professionals at the Sogakope Red Bull Arena. 



To some extent, the morale in camp would be at a low but the onus lies on the head coach, Yaw Preko to light up the playing body spirits when they play Sogakope based side, WAFA at the Akoon Park. 

With Medeama SC heading into this duel, their home invincibility should give them the edge over their weekend opponents.

The Mauve and Yellow side have won their last five games convincingly, which has aided their point accumulation at home to 27 points.

The likes of Prince Agyemang, Ahmed Toure, and Zakaria Mumuni have been impressive since joining up with the squad aiding in twelve goals in as many matches that the trio have played together. 

WAFA SC on the other hand, bruised following their first home loss in over six years against title ambitious side, Great Olympics will give this game their all knowing that a win will boost them up to 6th on the log if other results switch up in their favor.

Coach Prosper Narteh and his boys have since picked twelve (12) point playing away from home and if they don’t play well beyond expectations they won’t be able to add up to their two previous victories over the home side having lost four times and drawing two in eight games that they have engaged the two-time FA Cup champions.

In the last three seasons, Medeama SC have come close to winning the Ghana Premier League but for varied reasons, they couldn’t annex a trophy that has been nosing in their trophy cabinet since its establishment. 



Last week, they made a huge statement when they beat record holders of the league, Kotoko away from home, currently they sit at the summit on the table with a home tie against Ebusua Dwarfs. 

The inclusions of Prince Opoku Agyemang, Ahmed Toure, Zakaria Mumuni have certainly paid dividends as the team is playing with renewed confidence, belief, and a massive pool of understanding to complement efforts in their quest to win the league. 

The Mauve and Yellow side come up against Ebusua Dwarfs side who smashed another title eyeing side, Great Olympics for four at Cape Coast only a week past aiding them to 11th on the league log. 

The away side have had a topsy-turvy campaign under coach Ernest Thompson Quartey spurred on by their home victory over Olympics they will be looking to cause a major scalp against Medeama in Tarkwa.

Medeama SC looks like the side to steal all three points but the Crabs may have something special under their claws to cause a major upset in this fixture at the Akoon Park.
