Karela United will be desperate to arrest their recent decline when they square off with struggling Basake Holy Stars at the Aliu Mahama Stadium in Tamale on Saturday afternoon in a Ghana Premier League matchday 11 fixture.
The “Pride and Passion” side have hit a rough patch in recent weeks, managing just one win in their last seven league outings.
Their early-season momentum has stalled, and pressure is beginning to mount as they continue to slip down the table.
However, Karela can take comfort from their impressive home form.
With three wins and two draws, they remain unbeaten on home soil this campaign, a record they will be eager to protect as they seek to reignite their season.
Holy Stars, on the other hand, arrive in Tamale still fighting to find their rhythm in the topflight.
The Nzema-based outfit have struggled to cope with the intensity of the Premier League and have picked up just one victory since the season kicked off.
Yet, they travel north with a slight confidence boost after going unbeaten in their last two matches.
Their away form, however, tells a grimmer story. Holy Stars are winless in their last 21 away league games, losing each of their last four.
Saturday’s fixture presents a massive test of character for them as they attempt to defy the odds and end their dreadful record on the road.
