Second placed Bechem United will welcome struggling King Faisal to the Fosu Gyeabuor park at Bechem in this Ghana Premier League match day 8 encounter.

The Hunters began the campaign with an impressive record playing after 7 games without defeat. They opened a commanding lead at the summit of the table until last Sunday’s embarrassing 6-1 loss to Accra Hearts of Oak.

They began their campaign with a 1-1 draw against Liberty professionals in an away fixture and went on to win four games and one draw in the process.

Bechem United have an impressive home record picking all points against WAFA, Karela United and AshantiGold SC. Left back Emmanuel Asante will miss the game after picking a red card against Hearts of Oak on Sunday.

Striker Prince Adu Kwabena is in contention for his first start of the season after recovering from an ankle injury.

King Faisal continue to struggle, most especially on the road in the ongoing campaign. The ‘Insha Allah’ lads are yet to record after losing all three away games.

They currently sit 17th on the league log with 5 points and will like to improve their away record on Sunday against the ‘hunters’.
