Accra Hearts of Oak moved to the third position following their victory over Nsoatreman on matchday nine of the betPawa Premier League.
The game which was played on Monday, December 20, saw Kwadwo Obeng Junior score the only goal of the game to give the Phobians the needed victory in their first game after the World Cup break.
The forward pounced on a mistake from the Nsoatreman goalkeeper before striking into an empty net to secure the win for Hearts while ending the newly-promoted side's unbeaten record at home.
The victory sees the Accra-based side now on 16 points, three behind league leaders Aduana Football Club, who beat Great Olympics in the other fixture on Monday.
The Ogya lads relied on a 36th-minute own goal from Raymond Oko Grippman to ensure they walked away with all three points against the Wonder Club.
Despite picking up a loss, Olympics still stay in the sixth position, just two points outside the top four spots.
In Wednesday's fixtures, Kotoku Royals will take on Legon Cities with Bechem United also going head-to-head with Tamale City.
Asante Kotoko will rekindle their rivalry with Berekum Chelsea at the Baba Yara Stadium while Karela United battle Medeama.
In the other game, Dreams and King Faisal will also fight for the necessary three points at the Dawu Park.
