Legon Cities vs Heart of Lions Prediction: Host should take their chances here

Ghana Premier League action take place at Dawu Sports Stadium, pitting Legon Cities and Heart of Lions. Hosts are off a three straight win, while the visitors are seated bottom spot in the league standings.

In their recent matchups, Legon Cities secured victories in three games against Great Olympics, Real Tamale United, and Bofoakwe Tano. However, the hosts suffered defeats in two matches against Berekum Chelsea and Asante Kotoko. Throughout these games, Legon Cities scored a total of 7 goals while conceding 5. This translates to an average of 0.93 goals per match in the current league season. Regarding discipline, the home team accumulated 25 yellow cards and 2 red cards. Notably, Legon Cities has demonstrated proficiency in ball possession, maintaining an average possession rate of 53.11% in the ongoing season.

Heart of Lions comes into this match without securing a win in their last five outings. During this period, the visitors experienced defeats against Nations FC, Bechem United, and Samartex. However, they managed to secure draws against Hearts of Oak and Nsoatreman, marking their more positive results. Across these matches, the away team scored a total of 1 goal while conceding five. In their away fixtures, Heart of Lions averaged 0.54 goals per match while conceding 1. The team's ball possession statistics have not been particularly strong, with an overall average of 48.00% in this season.

The hosts are currently performing well, and I anticipate them maintaining their high level of play in this match. Conversely, Heart of Lions has been experiencing a downturn lately, facing significant challenges in securing victories and remaining entrenched at the bottom of the standings. Given the recent struggles of Heart of Lions, I expect a lower level of performance from them in this match. With Legon Cities playing at home, I am confident that they will dominate the game. Considering Heart of Lions' poor defensive record, I believe the visitors are likely to concede multiple goals in this encounter.
