Ghana Premier League title race tightens after Medeama stumble and Berekum Chelsea upset leaders

Recent fixtures have sharpened the contest for the Ghana Premier League crown. After edging Basake Holy Stars 1‑0 to maintain their lead, Medeama SC were held to a 0‑0 stalemate by Swedru All Blacks, then suffered a 2‑1 loss at Golden City Park against Berekum Chelsea. The defeat not only handed Chelsea a vital three points but also narrowed the margin at the top of the table, signalling a more open title race.

Traditional contenders have also felt the pressure. Asante Kotoko failed to secure a win in Matchweek 21, while Hearts of Oak dropped points in the same round, underscoring the volatility that now defines the league’s upper echelons. With several clubs closing the gap, the second half of the season promises a fierce scramble for supremacy.
