Great Olympics and Kumasi Asante Kotoko will set the Accra Sports Stadium ablaze when the two traditional giants come face to face in the round 18 First Capital Plus Premier League clash.

The Porcupines and the Wonder Club come into this game with their pride at stake after losing to New Edubiase and Accra Hearts of Oak respectively in the previous round of matches.

The patchy form of the Porcupines has not gone unnoticed, with fans hot on the heels of their players.

The corresponding fixture in Kumasi ended in a barren draw but a similar result will further deepen the woes of both clubs with Olympics in the relegation zone.

This game has all the makings of good spectacle, but at the end of ninety minutes, will the blue and white of Olympics or the Red of Kotoko triumph?

In other fixtures:
Liberty travel to Obuasi to play as guests of New Edubiase buoyed by their 3-2 victory over Hearts of Lions.

Leading marksman Kennedy Ashia fresh from his hat-trick over the weekend will be looking to add to his tally.

Edubiase themselves will not be overawed heading in this fixture after claiming a major scalp on matchday 17.

Edubiase beat Kotoko 2-1 in Kumasi, only their second away win of the season, a result which they believe will serve as a catalyst for their survival.

Hearts of Lions will be hoping to keep their home record intact when they play third from bottom Bechem United.

The Kpando side have kept eight clean sheets this season, one more than any other team in the league.

Bechem United have found their second season in the Premier League very tough but will rely on the brilliance and goal scoring ability of their midfielder Noah Martey to lead their survival charge.

Revenge will be on the minds of Hasaacas when they host Berekum based Chelsea.

The giants of the West lost by a goal to nothing in the corresponding fixture and will be itching to secure a victory to bolster their chances of survival.

Chelsea are hitting top form and currently find themselves second on the log going unbeaten in their last three games. 

At the Sunyani Coronation Park, B.A United will play Sogakope based WAFA who are in tremendous form at the moment.

Bottom placed B.A United’s hope of surviving in the league looks bleak after a disappointing 2-0 defeat in the Sunyani Derby.

The Sogakope side will have Samuel Tetteh, fresh from international duty, back in their fold as the look to compound B.A United’s misery.

Hearts of Oak will be chasing only a second win in five years in Wa when the face Wa All Stars.

The Phobians are full of confidence after their victory in the Mantse Derby but should be wary of their appalling record in Wa.

Wa All Stars on the other hand have had a good season so far by their standard and will be looking to maintain their unbeaten home record against the big sides having  drawn with Kotoko and beating Ashantigold.

The league thus far has been very fascinating, recording 284 goals by 129 players - an average of 2.09 goals per game.

Aduana Stars will be looking to revive their title charge after suffering defeat at the hands of Bechem United.

The Dormaa side face Medeama who are chasing their first win in the second round after two consecutive draws.

One point separates both sides and a victory in Wednesday’s game for either side will the outline their aspirations of being in the top 4.
League leaders Ashantigold face a tricky test when they travel south to meet Inter Allies.

AshGold have been impressive opening up a seven-point gap at the summit of the table but will have to fight extremely hard to earn the points against Paa Kwesi Fabin’s side.

The Tema based side will have Satellites trio Prosper Kasim, Joseph Aidoo and Patrick Kpozo to call after they returned from their disappointing World Cup campaign.
