The Mysterious vrs Magician Affair

The ‘dribbling magician’ Alhaji Abdul Ahmed Mohammed Polo will this weekend lead Glorious Accra Hearts of Oak to the Robert Mensah Stadium in Cape Coast to face Mysterious Ebusua Dwarfs as the Ghana Premier League returns after a short break.
This is going to be Polo’s first assignment as Coach of Hearts. This game can decide the fate of the dribbling magician because, if Hearts get turned over easily by Ebusua Dwarfs’ side that are well known not to be at their best of form.
Under Coach David Duncan, Hearts put some rock and roll performance that won the heart of the fans so definitely much will be expected from Polo though it’s an early day yet.
I actually think Polo’s problem will be at the end of the pitch (the attacking third) because before Duncan’s exit none of the strikers had established himself as an outstanding but I’m sure haven’t been a fearsome attacker in his days Polo can easily identify a good striker when he sees one.
Hearts is second on the ladder with 23 points whiles Ebusua Dwarfs are twelfth with 14 points.
At the Tarkwa T&A Park, Medeama Sporting Club will play as host to New Edubiase United in a match which promises to be full of fire works. Both sides did not start the season well but have managed to warm themselves very well as the season walked by.
Medeama occupies the fourth spot with 21 points whiles New Edubiase is eighth with 15 points. Edubiase will certainly give Medeama problems but trust the home side to pick the maximum point.
League leaders Kumasi Asante Kotoko will travel to the harbor City to play as guest to Amidaus Professionals. The Porcupine Warriors have a difficult assignment next weekend against Medeama and as such would want to pick all three points at Tema.
Asante Kotoko is at the summit of the table with 27 points whiles Amidaus Professionals are eleventh with 14 points. Amidaus are very much aware that to stay in the league they have to pick the home points but their visitors are quite a huge bone to crack.
Giant Killers Hearts of Lions will welcome Berekum Chelsea to the dreaded Kpando Park. Lions are fifth on the log with 18 points whiles Chelsea fourteenth with 13 points. This match can go either way but I tip Lions to win.
At the Obuasi Len Clay Stadium, Soccer miners Ashantigold fc will play as host to Sekondi Hasaacas. Ashantigold is third on the table with 22 points whiles Hasaacas have catapulted to the seventh with 16 points.
Aduana Stars will play as host to All Stars at the Osagyefo Agyeman Badu Park in Dormaa. Aduana used to very strong at home some seasons ago but that masquerade which used to scare teams has been unmasked this season as they lost some matches at the Agyeman Badu Park. Aduana is tenth on the ladder with 14 points whiles All Stars are ninth with 15 points.
At the Carl Reindorf Park in Dansoman, Liberty Professionals will welcome Bechem United. Liberty is thirteenth on the log with 14 points whiles Bechem is sixth with 17 points.
However at the Baba Yara Stadium in Kumasi, Alhaji Grunsah’s King Faisal will face International Allies in bottom of the table affair. King Faisal is fifteenth on the table with 13 points whiles Inter Allies are sixteenth with 9 points.
