Karela United braces for a crucial clash against league leaders Aduana FC at the Aliu Mahama Sports Stadium.
Despite pre-season predictions favoring Karela’s ascent, they currently languish in the relegation zone, securing only one win in ten games.
Striker Evans Adomako, initially prolific with 4 early-season goals, seeks to reignite his form after a goalless streak spanning five matches. The team gained a morale boost from an encounter with their owner, Hon. Haruna Iddrisu, just days before this encounter. Asigri Sulemana is racing for fitness but no major injury concerns loom.
Aduana FC, atop the league with 21 points, boasts a potent attack and a five-game unbeaten streak.
Isaac Mintah spearheads their offense, leading the scoring charts with 9 goals, including a remarkable streak of scoring in five consecutive matches, netting 7 times in that span.
