2025/26 Ghana Premier League: Week 26 Match Preview - Berekum Chelsea vs. Karela United

Berekum Chelsea face a must-win encounter on Sunday as they host Karela United at the Golden City Park in a crucial Ghana Premier League Matchday 26 fixture.

The Bibires are deep in relegation trouble, sitting second from bottom, and desperately need a positive result to revive their survival hopes.

A poor run of form has compounded their struggles, with Chelsea winless in their last four matches across all competitions, including their recent FA Cup exit via penalty shootout.

However, their home form offers a glimmer of hope. Despite an underwhelming campaign, Chelsea have turned the Golden City Park into a fortress, going unbeaten in their last ten home matches, recording seven wins and three draws.

Karela, meanwhile, arrive in Berekum brimming with confidence. The “Pride and Passion” side are enjoying a rich vein of form, picking up four wins and a draw from their last five league games.

Their momentum was further boosted by an impressive 1-0 victory over giants Asante Kotoko in their previous outing.

Currently sixth on the table, Karela have their sights set on breaking into the top tier and will view this clash as another opportunity to strengthen their position.

With both sides chasing contrasting ambitions, Sunday’s clash promises to be a fiercely contested battle in Berekum.
