2025/26 Ghana Premier League: Week 21 Match Preview - Karela United vs Hohoe United

Karela United host Hohoe United at the Aliu Mahama Stadium in Tamale on Sunday, with both sides desperate for a win to halt worrying runs of form in the Ghana Premier League.

Karela United have gone more than a month without a victory, enduring a five-match winless streak that includes three straight defeats. That poor sequence has dragged them closer to the relegation zone, increasing the pressure on the Tamale-based side to deliver a positive result at home.

Hohoe United, in their debut season in the top flight, have struggled to find consistency and composure at this level. They currently sit second from bottom on the table and, with 14 matches still to play, will be hoping to spark a turnaround beginning with this weekend’s fixture.

Both teams are in urgent need of a standout performance to snap their winless runs. Recent history offers some encouragement for Hohoe United, who claimed a convincing 4-1 win in the reverse fixture earlier in the season, giving them a slight edge in head-to-head meetings.

However, Karela United’s home form could prove decisive. They have lost just once in their last nine matches at the Aliu Mahama Stadium, recording six victories in that run, and have not drawn any of their last four home games. Hohoe United, meanwhile, have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last eight away matches, a weakness Karela will look to exploit.
