“I anticipate a good season for Hearts, but there is need for them to win at home. And if they are able to go and beat Aduana Stars in Dormaa, then I can say they are
on course for the league title, even though its early days yet in the league,” Sarpong told Sportscrusader.
He added: “Looking from where I sit so far in the league, Aduana Stars is the team to watch in the league.”
