Hearts of Oak host Basake Holy Stars on Saturday with a stingy defence and a two-game winning run powering their Ghana Premier League push.
Ghana Premier League action heads to Accra on Saturday, October 24, as Hearts of Oak look to stretch their winning run when they welcome Basake Holy Stars in Matchday 8 of the 2026/27 season.
The Phobians arrive in confident mood after back-to-back wins over Vision FC and FC Port City. Their season so far reads four wins, two draws and one defeat from seven matches, with eight goals scored and only two conceded, giving them one of the tightest defensive records in the division.
That resilience has been the foundation of their form. Hearts have kept three straight clean sheets, and coach Nebojsa Kapor will want that discipline maintained while his attackers keep finding the net. Kapor has also warned his squad against complacency, stressing that the right mentality and thorough preparation will be essential against any opponent.
Basake Holy Stars will travel looking to build on their recent victory over Bechem United, a result that has lifted spirits in their camp and given them nine points this season. A win in Accra would be a statement, but they face a Hearts side with momentum and a rock-solid backline.
Expect a tactical contest, with Hearts' defensive strength tested by a visiting team eager to prove their latest result was no fluke.
