GHALCA boss predicts tight league

Ghana League Clubs Association (GHALCA) interim chairman Alhaji Ali Raji has predicted a 'tight' league in the upcoming campaign which starts on Sunday.
Champions Berekum Chelsea are highly-tipped to defend title after making some quality big-names off-season signings.
The 2009/10 champions Aduana Stars are also keen to reclaim the title they lost last year.
Medeama have also brought in tried and tested players to cushion their ambitions
AshantiGold, Ebusua Dwarfs, New Edubiase and Liberty Professionals all have a chance to cause an upset.
And the GHALCA boss is excited with the preparations of the teams and says it will tough to predict.
''I should say that this year's league will be very tight. May be the closest that we’ll see in the history of the Premier League,'' Alhaji Raji told MTNFootball.com.
''If I look at the level of competition in the novelty GHALCA 8 competition and also look at the how Kotoko and Hearts performed in their Super 2, I can say this year’s league will be extremely difficult to tell.
''There are so much expectations in the air and that really excite me and for once we can get fans onto our stadias again.''
