2024/24 GPL Preview: In-form Asante Kotoko aim to deepen Basake Holy Stars’ woes

In-form Asante Kotoko are searching for their fourth successive 2024/25 Ghana Premier League victory when they visit the CAM Park to take on struggling Basake Holy Stars.

The Porcupines, who are one of only three unbeaten sides alongside Gold Stars and Berekum Chelsea, have racked up three consecutive wins including a recent triumph over defending champions Samartex.

Kotoko currently sit second on the league table with 14 points, and a win on Sunday could place them at the top, depending on the result of Gold Stars’ clash with Hearts of Oak.

Prosper Narteh Ogum’s side will fancy their chances on Sunday against the newly promoted side who seem to have hit the rock after a promising start to the season.

After collecting four points from the first available nine in their opening three matches, Holy Stars have managed only three points in their last five games, including a recent loss to Nsoatreman.

They now sit 13th on the table with 7 points, just one point above the relegation zone, making it imperative they bounce back.
