GPL: Nations FC set to upset rampaging Medeama today

An inconsistent Nations FC will be eager to rediscover their winning touch when they welcome Premier League leaders, Medeama SC, to the Dr Kwame Kyei Sports Complex today, in a fascinating matchday 21 showdown.

Under pressure to steady a stuttering campaign, Frimpong Manso’s Nations FC sit 12th on the league table and have managed just one win in their last five matches.

 Their recent run includes a 2-0 away defeat to FC Samartex 1996, leaving them on 24 points after 20 matches, with 15 goals scored and 18 conceded.

Despite their struggles on the road, Nations FC have turned Abrankese into a fortress this season. They remain unbeaten in all 10 home league fixtures, recording six wins and four draws while conceding just five goals.

That formidable home form offers genuine optimism ahead of today’s clash, particularly against a Medeama side they have never lost to at home in the Premier League since 2023.

Medeama SC arrive as the team to beat, sitting comfortably at the summit with an eight-point cushion and have led the table since their 1-0 away victory over Heart of Lions in Kpando on Matchweek 16 and remain firmly on course for their first league title since the 2022/23 season.

Today’s encounter presents Medeama with the opportunity to secure their first league win in Abrankese since 2023, but they face a stern test against a Nations FC side determined to protect their proud home record.

The competition will continue tomorrow at the Baba Yara Stadium and Dormaa Park, respectively, where Asante Kotoko engage Heart of Lions and Aduana face-off with Samartex.

Elsewhere, Hearts of Oak would welcome Bechem United at the University of Ghana Stadium, Vision FC will face Dreams FC at the Nii Adjei Kraku Stadium in Tema, while the Wenchi Stadium will host the clash between bottom-club, Eleven Wonders, and Young Apostles.

The Aliu Mahama Stadium will play host to the “Clash of the Uniteds” between Karela and Hohoe, while the Awuale Amihere Kpanyinli III Sports Arena at Ampain, Nzema, will host the game between Basake Holy Stars and Berekum Chelsea.
