The 2024/25 Ghana Premier League season kicks off this weekend with an exciting clash between Karela United and Kumasi Asante Kotoko SC at the Naa Sheriga Sports Centre in Nareligu on Sunday. Both teams are eager for a strong start to the season.
Karela United, bolstered by new signings such as Benjamin York, Najib Fuseini, and Victor Aidoo, aim to maintain their recent dominance over Kotoko. Their 1-0 victory at home last season, along with an unbeaten streak in their last seven encounters with the Porcupines, gives them confidence heading into this match. Karela has won their last two games against Kotoko.
On the other hand, Asante Kotoko is determined to break their winless streak against Karela, with their last victory dating back to June 2021. The Porcupine Warriors have made significant changes to their squad, bringing in over ten new players, including five foreigners, as they seek to turn the tide in their favor.
This highly anticipated fixture is expected to set the tone for the rest of the season.
