The 2024-25 Ghana Premier League took another dramatic turn in Week 31, with title contenders and relegation fighters alike making bold statements as the season enters its final stretch.
At the Baba Yara Sports Stadium, Asante Kotoko reasserted their title ambitions with a commanding 4-1 victory over Dreams FC. Kwame Poku’s clinical brace, supported by goals from Albert Amoah and Wisdom Bassey, ensured a comfortable win for the Porcupine Warriors. The result moved Kotoko within two points of league leaders Bibiani Gold Stars, tightening the race at the top as the campaign heads toward a tense finish.
Meanwhile, Accra Hearts of Oak kept their slim title hopes alive with a hard-fought 1-0 away win over Berekum Chelsea at the Golden City Park. Maxwell Wayo’s decisive second-half strike helped the Phobians bounce back from their recent draw against Kotoko, pushing them up to sixth place on 49 points. The defeat leaves Berekum Chelsea hovering precariously in 12th, just above the drop zone.
In one of the weekend’s most thrilling encounters, Accra Lions pulled off a stunning 5-3 win over Aduana Stars at the Accra Sports Stadium. The goal-laden clash marked the highest-scoring game of the season, with the Lions roaring back into form as they battle to avoid relegation.
