Medeama SC will aim to climb to the summit of the Ghana Premier League when they host Basake Holy Stars in a Matchday 15 encounter at the Tarkwa TnA Park on Monday, December 22.

League Context

“We are preparing against any team almost the same because I always say there is no small team in the league. Anyone can beat any team on a good day, so definitely we are preparing like any other game and we hope our boys will do the needful so that we will keep the points here.”

He welcomed the return of national team players without injuries, noting that only Emmanuel Owusu remains unavailable.
