Prempeh Elite Academy and Greater Accra meet on Wednesday, October 7, in a decisive Group A contest at the 2026 KGL Foundation Inter-Regional U17 Colts Championship.
The match pits the competitions leading side against the team immediately below them in the standings, with both aiming to strengthen their position as the group stage reaches a critical point.
Prempeh Elite Academy have made a perfect start to the tournament, winning all three of their opening matches to move to the top of Group A.

At the same time, Central Region will play Upper West Region on the betPawa pitch. That match also carries importance as the group standings begin to take shape.

Two further fixtures are scheduled for the afternoon. Upper West Region will take on Eastern Region at 2:00pm, before Ashanti Region complete the days action against Brong Ahafo.
