Bibiani Gold Stars vs Bofoakwa Tano Prediction: A draw won’t end this second leg encounter

Bibiani Park is set to host the Ghana Premier League clash between Bibiani Gold Stars and Bofoakwa Tano. This match is crucial for both teams as they strive to avoid relegation. Their previous encounter in the first leg ended in a scoreless draw. Will either team secure a victory this time, or will they settle for another draw?

In their recent league fixtures, Bibiani Gold Stars emerged victorious twice, defeating Berekum Chelsea and Accra Great Olympics. However, they faced setbacks against Dreams and Asante Kotoko, resulting in defeats. Nevertheless, they held Real Tamale United to a 2-2 draw. Throughout these matches, Bibiani Gold Stars netted a total of 8 goals while conceding 7. On average, they scored 1.24 goals per game in the current league campaign. In terms of discipline, the home team accumulated 42 yellow cards and one red card. Despite their strengths, Bibiani Gold Stars struggle to maintain possession, averaging a possession rate of 48.50% this season.

Leading up to this game, Bofoakwa Tano managed just one victory in their league encounters, securing a narrow 1-0 win against Heart of Lions. Despite a loss to Accra Great Olympics, they earned one point each in their matches against Medeama, Real Tamale United, and Accra Hearts of Oak. Throughout these fixtures, Bofoakwa Tano scored 3 goals while conceding 3. In their away games, they averaged 0.57 goals scored per match and 0.86 goals conceded. The team accrued 34 yellow cards and one red card due to disciplinary infractions. Bofoakwa Tano has demonstrated strong ball possession, maintaining an average of 50.07% possession throughout the season.

This is a crucial encounter for both sides as they strive to avoid relegation. However, the home side appears to have a slight edge based on their overall record. Although Bofoakwa Tano are anticipated to display defensive solidity in this match, I believe they may encounter difficulties at certain points during the game. Consequently, while Bibiani Gold Stars managed to secure a draw away in the first leg of this encounter, I predict that they will claim all three points at home in a match that is likely to feature few goals.
