Heart of Lions vs Holy Stars Prediction: League leaders will dominate this fixture

At Kpando Sports Stadium, Heart of Lions will play Holy Stars in round 14 of the Ghana Premier League. Heading into this game, the two teams pulled off outstanding performances in their last league game. While this is their first meeting, which side will draw the first blood? Below, I provide a full match analysis while offering valuable betting options.

Heart of Lions

Heart of Lions did a good job on the road the previous weekend against Samartex, securing a 0-1 win and will hope for a similar outcome. In that game, Heart of Lions needed an early strike from Nana Oppong to take maximum points and will hope to keep things running. 

However, this team has an unbeaten run of six matches, winning five. In fact, Heart of Lions' lone defeat so far since the start of the season was against Karela United, ending 1-0. Heading into this game, Heart of Lions have the second most points accumulated on home turf, scoring seven goals. 

Holy Stars

Holy Stars' last encounter was against Young Apostles, and they secured maximum points. In a game that ended 3-0, Holy Stars settled for a goalless draw at halftime. However, a better second-half performance was enough to see this team take maximum points, thanks to Prince Opoku and Prince Tweneboah's strikes while benefiting from Emmanuel Kontor's own goal. 

Heading into this game, Holy Stars have won three of their last four games, coming against Legon Cities. However, the Holy Stars defeated the Accra Lions and Samartex. In the meantime, away from home, this team has a poor record with four points, scoring four goals and conceding eight. 

Expert Betting Tips

Heart of Lions have been at top level this season, and I do not expect them to lose here. While Holy Stars have been impressive in their first season in this league, taking on a hot, experienced side like Heart of Lions will be tough. Looking at the two sides, I expect a lot from them, especially considering how brilliant and competitive they are. I will take this game to end with goals, as I hope the two sides will be able to net. Yet, at home, Heart of Lions are expected to take maximum points.
