Legon Cities are poised to extend their impressive home record as they face Berekum Chelsea at the Theatre of Dreams in Dawu on Friday, marking the opening matchday-28 fixture of the Ghana Premier League.

The Royals enter the clash on the back of a remarkable 2-0 victory over giants Hearts of Oak last weekend, maintaining their unbeaten status at home.

Meanwhile, Berekum Chelsea arrives with confidence following a 2-0 win over defending champions Medeama at home.

With Legon Cities undefeated at the Theatre of Dreams, the encounter promises intrigue as Chelsea seeks to challenge the home side's resilience.

Currently sitting 12th on the table with 35 points from 27 matches, Legon Cities have shown strength on their home turf, securing 27 points and suffering only two defeats this season.

However, their visitors, Berekum Chelsea, stand 5th on the table with 41 points, buoyed by recent successes but facing a winless streak in their last six away games.

In their previous encounters at home, Legon Cities and Berekum Chelsea have battled to draws in each of the last three seasons, highlighting the evenly matched nature of their clashes.

Both teams have struggled defensively this season, conceding more goals than they've scored.

However, with key players like Kwabena Boateng, Joseph Mireku, and William Adjei available for Legon Cities, and Premier League top scorer Stephen Amankona leading Berekum Chelsea's attack, the stage is set for an engaging showdown.

As the two sides aim to secure crucial points, Friday's clash promises excitement and intensity as Legon Cities seek to maintain their stronghold at home against a resilient Berekum Chelsea side.
