GPL Preview: Medeama Host Aduana in Fierce Top-of-the-Table Clash
Ghana Premier League leaders Medeama SC will welcome third-placed Aduana FC to the TnA Stadium in Tarkwa this Friday, February 13, in what promises to be a thrilling but fierce encounter.
Medeama, who are currently 7 points clear of Aduana, will be looking to extend their lead, while the Fire Boys, aiming for a third league title, will be desperate to reduce the gap to 4 points with a victory.
The Yellow and Mauves are coming into this match on the back of a rare defeat, their first in 18 league games, following a 2-1 away loss to Nations FC two weeks ago.
Despite that setback, Medeama’s home form remains formidable. They have won 4 of their last 5 home games, with 1 draw, and have yet to lose at home this season.
Aduana FC’s away form, on the other hand, has been unpredictable. With 2 wins, 1 draw, and 2 losses in their last 5 road trips, the Fire Boys’ results on the road have been inconsistent.
This inconsistency is reflected in Aduana’s recent record in Tarkwa, where they have lost 4 of their last 5 visits to Medeama, including the last 2.
Their sole victory in the past five years came back in 2022. Medeama’s strong home form against Aduana suggests that the visitors will face a tough challenge in their bid to close the points gap on the leaders.
With both teams hungry for a win, this clash is set to be an exciting showdown in the race for the GPL title.
