Hearts of Oak set to defeat Accra Lions in derby clash
2855

On Thursday afternoon, Accra Lions hosts city rivals Hearts of Oak in a big derby match in the Ghanian Premier League.

Accra Lions

After winning their last five matches in the Ghanian top flight, the hosts are currently top of the table. The excellent run of form comes on the back of losing their opening game of the league campaign.

They will know that they need to maintain their current positive momentum if they are to maintain their position in the standings.

One critical factor in Accra Lions' good campaign has been their defensive displays in recent matches, as they haven’t conceded a goal in four league outings.

The solid defensive performances have contributed to six of their last seven Premier League games producing under 2.5 goals.

Accra Lions also have a decent recent home record in the Ghanian Premier League, as they are unbeaten in seven home league matches, having recorded five wins and two draws.

Hearts of Oak

The 2021 champions have made a mixed start to their Premier League campaign, winning just two of their six league games this season.

However, Hearts of Oak head into this game on the back of a five-game unbeaten run in the Premier League, which has consisted of three wins and two draws.

Like their opponents, the visitor's recent league games have been low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in five of their last six matches.

One facet of their game that needs to improve is their away form, as Hearts of Oak has won just one of their previous seven league matches on their travels.

A 1-0 win at Kotoku Royals last time out ended a six-game winless run for the visitors away from home.

What does Forebet predict?

Forebet predicts that the visitors will record a victory and end their city rival's winning run in the Premier League.
