Bibiani GoldStars host Hearts of Oak at Bibiani Duns Park on Sunday in a clash that could have major implications for the Ghana Premier League title race.
GoldStars, unbeaten at home this season, sit second on the table with 42 points and will look to extend their impressive run. Hearts of Oak are close behind in third with 40 points and bring the leagues best defensive record into the contest, having conceded just seven goals in 23 matches.
Recent meetings between the two sides suggest another tight encounter. Since October 2023, they have faced off six times, with GoldStars winning three and the other three ending in draws. Their most recent clash, in October 2025, finished 2-2. Gold Stars hold a slight edge in goals scored across those games, with eight to Hearts six.
Form also favours the hosts, who are on a three-match winning streak after victories over Hearts of Lions, Basake Holy Stars and Swedru All Blacks. Hearts, meanwhile, were held to a goalless draw by Berekum Chelsea in their last outing.
Gold Stars have won 13 of their 23 league matches this season, while Hearts have recorded 10 wins and 10 draws, underlining their consistency.
Sundays showdown could prove decisive in shaping the direction of the title race, with just two points separating the sides.
