In the highly anticipated Week 7 fixture of the Ghana Premier League, Accra Hearts of Oak will travel to face Dreams FC at the Tuba Astro Turf. With both teams eyeing a strong position on the league table, this encounter promises to be a thrilling contest. However, Hearts of Oak’s squad sees some notable exclusions, adding an extra layer of intrigue to the match.
Notable Exclusions: Hearts of Oak will be without several key players, which could impact the team’s dynamics:
Opppong Afranie
Martin Karikari
Nurudeen Aziz
Kasim Cisse
Michael Ampadu

These absentees, particularly in the defensive and midfield departments, will likely force coach Martin Koopman to make strategic adjustments.
