Medeama head south to Cape Coast stadium in a cracker against Ebusua Dwarfs, anyone could cause an upset but the Abontoabontoa boys holding home advantage.

Kototo host XI Wonders at Baba Yara Stadium, Sure Wonders aren't a bogey side as such Fabulous, but certainly the intention will be to suprise Maxwell Konadu and his lads at their own backyard with the young coach in league Ignatius Osei-Fosu who is likely to watch the game from the stands in their first two games. who knows what'll happen at Baba Yara Stadium tomorrow ?

Dreams FC and King Faisal face off at the Theatre of Dreams, Dewu park.For both sides, it represents a brilliant opportunity to sort themselves out in the GPL opener.
