Real Tamale United (RTU) is set to host Medeama SC today, January 3, at the Ali Mahama Sports Stadium in a much-awaited Ghana Premier League (GPL) clash. Kick-off is slated for 3 pm, ensuring fans an exciting showdown.
The match, originally scheduled for December 3, 2023, was postponed due to Medeama’s involvement in the CAF Champions League, heightening the anticipation for this encounter.
RTU have not tasted victory in their last five league outings, leaving them languishing in 17th place with a mere 14 points from 16 games. Their struggles have been evident, with inconsistency and defensive vulnerabilities plaguing their campaign.
A win against Medeama is vital for Real Tamale United to climb out of the relegation zone and inject some much-needed confidence into their struggling campaign.
Medeama sits comfortably in 11th place with 20 points from 13 matches, boasting two wins in their last five league games. However, inconsistency has plagued their season, and coach Nebojsa Kapor will be keen to see a more dominant performance against RTU.
Securing three points would not only improve Medeama’s league position but also build momentum for their remaining three outstanding matches before the first round concludes. Medeama SC takes on Great Olympics, Hearts of lions and Bofoakwa Tano in the coming weeks
Historically, Medeama SC have dominated Real Tamale United, winning four out of their last five encounters. The only exception was a draw in their previous meeting. This statistic adds another layer of intrigue to the clash, as RTU seek to break the Medeama dominance and claim a much-needed victory.
This encounter promises an exciting and unpredictable affair. With Real Tamale United desperate for a win and Medeama seeking to maintain their momentum, both teams will be throwing everything they have onto the pitch.
