GPL Week 24 Preview: Bechem United faces struggling Kotoko in highly-anticipated showdown

Bechem United will clash with Asante Kotoko at Nana Fosu Gyeabuor Park on Saturday, April 6, 2024, in what promises to be a highly anticipated fixture.

The Hunters come into the game on the back of a 1-0 loss to Legon Cities in the quarterfinal of the MTN FA Cup. Despite the setback, Bechem United sits comfortably in 5th place on the league table with 33 points, showcasing a strong home record with 4 wins out of their last 5 home games.

On the other hand, Asante Kotoko, currently in 10th place, is eager to bounce back after a string of poor results, having gone four consecutive league games without a win. The Porcupine Warriors boast the title of the best away performers in the campaign but have struggled to secure victories on the road since Matchday 17.

History favors Bechem United in encounters against Asante Kotoko at home, with two wins and a draw in their last three meetings. The Hunters will rely on their formidable lineup, including players like Cephas Mantey and Emmanuel Abbabio, to secure another victory on home soil.

Meanwhile, Asante Kotoko welcomes back Stephen Mukwala Desse, who returns to the squad after international duty with Uganda.

The game will be live on StarTimes Adepa channel 247 at 3pm on Saturday, April 6, 2024.
