Hearts of Oak last week overtook Kotoko to go top of the Premier League
The search for the 2020/21 Ghana Premier League (GPL) title is getting intriguing with Hearts of Oak and Asante Kotoko being at the front-runners.
Match-week 27 kicks starts on Friday at the Crosby Awuah Memorial (CAM) Park in Anyinase with a feisty duel between Karela United and Great Olympics.
Great Olympics could go top of the league temporarily with a win against Karela United who are unbeaten in their last six matches.
Top scorer of the league Diawise Taylor who has 15 goals to his credit would be looking to add to his tally and propel his side into the top four spot.
