Heart of Lions will host Legon Cities at the Kpando Sports Stadium for their fixture in the penultimate round of matches in the Premier League on Sunday, June 9, 2024.
Both teams are not yet safe from relegation, with Lions in 14th position on the standings while Legon Cities, three points ahead, are in 9th position. The relegation battle is far from over for both teams, who could slip into the danger zone if they fail to win their remaining two matches.
This makes Sunday’s match a must-win for either side given the tightly packed nature of the league table. Bashiru Hayford has done a remarkable job since taking over as head coach, lifting Lions from the bottom of the table. He aims to complete the turnaround by ensuring their stay in the top flight.
Lions have managed to turn the Kpando Sports Stadium into a fortress since their return, making them favorites to grab all three points. They have not lost a home game this year, which does not bode well for the visitors.
The Royals, on the other hand, have not won an away match this year, and only RTU have lost more games on the road than Fabin’s side this season. They will need to be at their best if they hope to leave Kpando with at least a point.
