As both team are seeking to kick-start their season on a very high note which further implicate that, it is either a win or nothing else. This crunchy encounter is anticipated to serve fans nothing below their expectation.
All eye balls would be catching a full glimpse at what could be the most entertaining fixture of the match-week one encounter.
Preview of the game:
Kpando Hearts of Lions since making a return into the Ghana Premier League have succeeded in making their home venue, Kpando Sports Stadium a fortress and a lions dun.
In that vein, the Volta region based club had a phenomenal season after ending their season as one of the top-four teams in the league.
However, Dreams FC where noted for under performing in most of their away games last season whiles recording a season to forget campaign during the just ended league season.
The question now pops-up, can Hearts of Lion pick up from where they ended their incredible outing or would this be Dreams FC’s season to take?
Hearts of Lions have secured the services of Nayan FC’s midfielder, Michael Boateng, Qabila FC’s winger Kojo Macaulay and former Hearts of Oak left Back Dennis Nkrumah Korsah have all joined the team.
Further, Hearts of Lions have kept the core spine of the hence, securing these three decent signings have further strengthened the squad.
Meanwhile, Dreams FC after an appalling season would look forward to reigniting their lost glory this season.
Dreams FC seized the opportunity to beef-up their squad as they failed to make Seidu Suraj’s loan deal a permanent one. The team have secured versatile forward with GPL experience, Isaac Okyere on a permanent basis.
Tactical Analysis of the game:
One thing that could work for both teams their tactical discipline however, taking a close look at the Hearts of Lion’s team, Coach Bashir Hayford would definitely have an upper hand going into this game.
After having much ample time in imbibing his ideologies into the team; right from last season, the team has most often than not enjoyed a lot of possession in most games as the likes of Addo Ishamel, Asante Seedorf and Danso Yaw have shown their enormous quality in the heart of midfield.
Whiles in the attacking third, Attah Agyei paul would aid the team in initiating the press in order to get his team to defend as a unit yet, as prolific as he is, he has the potentials of burying the ball at the back of the net should any half chance present itself.
Meanwhile, Dreams FC could go for the experienced safe pair of hands, that is, Richmond Ayi whiles relying on Adade Ebenezer and Isaac Yaro who have been superb for the team anytime they have the opportunity to play.
However, knowing the coaching prowess of Dreams FC’s new technical staff being headed by coach Winfred Dorman, the team would certainly play somewhat good football and each player being selected would look forward to etching their names into the good books of the manager hence, the dynamics would vary.
Predictions for the game:
In as much as both side are hungry to pick up all three points, it’s clear the most likely results would be a point shared result.
However, Kpando Hearts of Lions have one foot forward as they head into the game against Dreams FC. But then, it would be very astonishing should Dreams pick up all three points in today’s game.
