GPL match-day 14 preview: Hearts host Great Olympics in regional derby as WAFA welcome Aduana Stars

-

The match-day 14 of the Ghana Premier League returns on mid-week with all eyes on Hearts of Oak and Accra Great Olympics’ regional derby at the Accra Sports Stadium.

Adomonline.com preview all the matches.

Accra Hearts of Oak and Accra Great Olympics will renew their rivalry when they clash in a local derby at the Accra Sports Stadium on Wednesday.

Clashes between the two local clubs have often evoked passion and Wednesday’s game will not be an exception as the two capital city-based clubs strive to establish their authority over the other.

Hearts of Oak have not been good playing at the Accra Sports Stadium this season and their 1-1 drawn game against Inter Allies seems to have dumped their spirit ahead of this game.

Olympics will be without skipper, Gladson Awako, who sustained an arm injury during their league game against Ebusua Dwarfs last Saturday.

Olympics have poor record against their regional rivals and the last time they met in the 2016/17 league, the Dade Boys succumbed to the dictates of their rivals in a 1-2 defeat back-to-back.

Surprisingly, Olympics have never beaten their city rivals in their last 10 outings with the Phobians holding a record of seven wins with the remaining three ending in a draw.
