Three clubs hunt for the title and six others battle against play-off as the Glo premier league draws to a close, Sunday.
Leaders and favourites Accra Hearts of Oak have 49 points and must win against relegated St Mirren at the Ohene Djan Sports Stadium to certify their 20th league title.
Champions, Kumasi Asante Kotoko with an eye on retaining the title, need to beat local rivals King Faisal at the Baba Yara Stadium. They have 48 points and would count on Mirren to hold or defeat Hearts to be crowned league champions for another year.
Dark horses Heart of Lions are lying third on the log with 46 points and play Berekum Arsenals at home.
The Kpando lads mathematically have a chance of winning the title for the first time, but would have to count on favours from King Faisal and Sporting Mirren.
It appears an impossible task but with the swings in this year’s Glo premier league it will not be surprising for lions to beat Kotoko and Hearts to the league.
Board room decisions have taken a little drama and sensation out of the dog-fight against relegation.
Tema youth joined Mirren in relegation after they were deducted six points for fielding an unqualified player.
Prior to that decision, six clubs had their tongues in their mouths with relegation staring them right in the face, but will now have to shrug off play-off scare.Ashantigold, Liberty, All Blacks, RTU, Hasaacas must win to avoid a play-off with a division one side.
Liberty play as guest of Beechem Chelsea in a match that could go either way. A draw is pretty much likely.
Hasaacas trek to Wa to face All Stars. The sekondi lads need maximum points to avoid play-off, but that would be a difficult task.
RTU are hot favourites in the match against Ashgold in Tamale, whilst Eleven Wise host Kessben at the Essipong Stadium.
Tema Youth now clutching to straws engage All Blacks in at the Tema Sports Stadium.
