During the first round of the Premier League season, Ebusua Dwarfs were the first team to draw with Great Olympics at the Accra sports stadium on Christmas Eve – December 24, 2020. A great lead in the 12th was given to Great Olympics by Charles Danso Otu. However, that goal was canceled by Obed Bentum two minutes later.
Ebusua Dwarfs, who are Fresh from their 2-1 loss to Berekum Chelsea on Sunday, have a date against second-placed Great Olympics on matchday 21 of the Ghana Premier League (GPL) on Saturday at the Cape Coast stadium.
The first blood was drawn by Enock Afram in the first half – however, Stephen Badu restored parity before Kofi Owusu’s winner in the second half to give victory to Chelsea.
On Friday, Great Olympics, who are technically proficient, early on, were held 0-0 by Asante Kotoko in Accra– a result that kept the two teams at the top of the League table with only one point separating them.
This season, Ebusua Dwarfs home form has been less exhilarating. However, they are still strong at home despite losing three in their first 10 home matches.
The 1965/66 Ghana Premier League champions suffered defeats to Elmina Sharks, Medeama SC, and Karela United at the Cape Coast stadium. This is a situation they want to depart from in the second round of the League.
Ebusua Dwarfs sit in the bottom half of the table with 24 points after 20 Premier League matches. They are aiming for a win to avoid dropping further down the table.
Still being one of the best players in the season, Gladson Awako will head to Cape Coast with one thing on his mind, thus a win to keep their title aspirations on course.
Expected to continue from where he left off after dazzling against Asante Kotoko, Samuel Ashie Quaye, who has been an unsung hero in the Great Olympics, will with his silky style of play and his fearless attitude on the field of play deliver great results.
Maxwell Abbey Quaye is another player with similar quality. Defender Jamal Deen Haruna however is still out injured and will miss the tie against Ebusua Dwarfs.
The fixture between Cape Coast Ebusua Dwarfs and Accra Great Olympics will be telecasted live on Max TV and Star Times Adepa TV Channel 247 at 6:00pm.
