Ghana Premier League Match Day 15 Fixtures & Previews

Medeama SC and Basake Holy Stars will today kickoff Match Day 15 of the 2025/26 Ghana Premier League at the T&A Stadium.

Anticipation among fans across the country could not be higher as the league gradually approaches the halfway mark and the stakes continue to rise with every passing fixture.

What once felt like a long and forgiving campaign is now taking a more defined shape, where consistency, squad depth and tactical discipline are beginning to separate genuine title contenders from those merely trying to keep pace.

Below are some of the match day 15 fixtures;

Aduana, Hearts face off at Aduana

Aduana FC and Hearts of Oak renew their rivalry this weekend in a fixture that carries significant weight at the top end of the Ghana Premier League table. With the season entering a decisive phase, both sides know that the outcome in Dormaa Ahenkro could shape their title ambitions.

Aduana come into the match as league leaders, sitting first with 27 points from 14 matches. Although their recent form has shown the occasional stumble, Aduana remain a formidable force at home, where they have traditionally imposed themselves with confidence and control.

The Phobians have also built their campaign on a solid defensive base, conceding only six goals, the joint-best record in the league.

However, goals have been harder to come by for Hearts, making efficiency and game management crucial as they look to close the gap on the leaders.

The recent head-to-head record tilts in Aduana’s favor. In their last four completed league meetings, Aduana have won three and drawn one, including a convincing 2–0 victory in April 2025 and a narrow 1–0 away win in May 2024.

Hearts of Oak have failed to score in those four encounters, underlining Aduana’s defensive dominance in this fixture and adding a psychological edge for the home side.

Tactically, the contest is expected to be tight and measured. Aduana will aim to control proceedings with structure and patience, looking to exploit moments in transition and set-piece situations. Hearts, on the other hand, are likely to prioritise compactness and ball retention, seeking to frustrate the hosts and strike when opportunities arise.

With Aduana seeking to consolidate their place at the summit and Hearts of Oak eager to make a statement on the road, this encounter promises intensity rather than flair.

 

Eleven Wonders welcome Asante Kotoko

As the Ghana Premier League season unfolds, attention shifts to a fixture that brings together two clubs at opposite ends of the table, but united by the urgency of points and pride. Eleven Wonders host Asante Kotoko in a clash that carries very different motivations for both sides.

Eleven Wonders come into this encounter rooted to the bottom of the table in 18th place, having managed just six points from 14 matches. Their campaign has been a difficult one, marked by defensive struggles and a lack of consistency in results. With only one win all season and the league’s weakest goal difference, the home side are under pressure to start turning performances into points, especially in front of their own supporters.

Asante Kotoko’s season has been defined by balance and resilience, conceding only nine goals while maintaining a steady accumulation of points. Though recent form has been mixed, Kotoko remain firmly in the title conversation and know that fixtures against lower-ranked sides present opportunities they cannot afford to waste.

The head-to-head record suggests a closely contested rivalry. While Kotoko have enjoyed slight superiority, winning two of the last five meetings, three have ended in draws, including a goalless stalemate the last time Eleven Wonders hosted the Porcupine Warriors.

Tactically, the match is expected to follow a familiar pattern. Eleven Wonders are likely to adopt a cautious approach, focusing on defensive organisation and hoping to exploit counter-attacks or set-piece situations. Kotoko, on the other hand, will seek to dominate possession, apply sustained pressure and use their experience to break down a stubborn defense.

For Eleven Wonders, this match represents a chance to spark a revival and restore belief in their fight for survival. For Asante Kotoko, it is a test of focus and ambition a game they must approach with intensity if they are to keep pace with the teams above them.

If Eleven Wonders can stay disciplined, they may trouble the visitors, but Kotoko’s quality and depth give them the edge in a contest where patience and precision will be decisive.

 

Samartex host Heart of Lions Top of Form 

Samartex FC welcome Heart of Lions in a compelling mid-table Ghana Premier League encounter, with both sides keen to gain momentum and stay within touching distance of the leading pack as the season begins to take shape.

Samartex currently sit 7th on the table with 21 points from 14 matches, a position earned through consistency rather than dominance. With five wins, six draws and three defeats, they have proven difficult to beat, boasting a compact defense that has conceded just nine goals all season. However, a lack of cutting edge in front of goal has limited their rise and turning draws into wins remains a key objective as they return to home soil.

Heart of Lions arrive slightly ahead in 5th place with 23 points, having recorded six wins, five draws, and three losses. Their campaign has been defined by attacking intent, reflected in 17 goals scored, one of the stronger tallies in the league.

While recent form has been inconsistent, the Lions remain firmly in the hunt for a top-four finish and know that a positive result away from home would further strengthen their credentials.

The head-to-head record adds intrigue to the fixture. Heart of Lions have enjoyed the upper hand in recent meetings, winning three of the last four encounters, including a 2–1 victory in May 2025 and a 1–0 away win in December 2024. Samartex’s only recent success came at home in December 2023, a reminder that familiar surroundings could play a decisive role once again.

Tactically, the contest is expected to be finely balanced. Samartex will look to control proceedings with structure and patience, relying on defensive solidity and quick transitions. Heart of Lions, meanwhile, are likely to press higher and test the home side with their attacking movement, seeking to exploit any lapses in concentration.

With both teams separated by just two points, this fixture carries significant implications.
