Legon Cities FC are set to host Berekum Chelsea at the Theatre of Dreams in Dawu on Friday, looking to uphold their impressive home record in the Ghana Premier League.
The Royals have remained undefeated in Dawu and will aim to continue their dominance by adding Berekum Chelsea to their list of conquered opponents in Friday’s matchday-28 fixture.
Entering the clash with confidence, Legon Cities secured a notable 2-0 victory over giants Hearts of Oak in their previous outing, while Berekum Chelsea arrive on the back of a morale-boosting 2-0 triumph over defending champions Medeama at home.
As both teams prepare for battle, all eyes will be on Legon Cities to see if they can maintain their unbeaten streak at the Theatre of Dreams against a resurgent Berekum Chelsea side.
Currently sitting 12th on the league table with 35 points from 27 matches, Legon Cities have been formidable at home, amassing 27 points and suffering only two defeats this season, both away from Dawu.
Berekum Chelsea, occupying the 5th position with 41 points, have showcased mixed form in recent outings, recording two wins, two draws, and one defeat in their last five matches. However, their away form has been a concern, as they remain winless in their last six consecutive away games.
In their previous encounters at home against Berekum Chelsea since the 2020/21 season, Legon Cities have seen all matches end in draws.
With a squad boasting the likes of Kwabena Boateng, Joseph Mireku, and Albert Yeboah, who scored a brace against Hearts of Oak, Legon Cities will aim to capitalize on their home advantage.
Meanwhile, Berekum Chelsea will look to Premier League top scorer Stephen Amankona and key players such as Mezack Afriyie and Emmanuel Sarpong to inspire them to victory in what promises to be an enthralling encounter.
