Basake Holy Stars, debutants in the 2024-25 Ghana Premier League season, made headlines with a shocking opening-day victory over giants Hearts of Oak in Accra.<\/p>\n
However, the excitement of that win has quickly faded as the newcomers have struggled to maintain their form.<\/p>\n
Holy Stars are now winless in their last four matches, managing just one point from a possible twelve.<\/p>\n
The team has suffered three consecutive defeats, losing to Bibiani Goldstars, Medeama SC, and Vision FC.<\/p>\n
As they search for their first home win in the top flight, Holy Stars face another challenging test on Sunday afternoon when they host Karela United at the CAM Park in Nzema-Aiyinase.<\/p>\n
Karela, after a shaky start to the season with two straight losses, seem to have found their rhythm.<\/p>\n
They are unbeaten in their last three matches, including an impressive away victory over Legon Cities FC, which has bolstered their confidence.<\/p>\n
For Holy Stars, securing a win at home is crucial to avoid sinking further down the table, but Karela\u2019s recent form and familiarity with Nzema-Aiyinase\u2014where they were based before relocating to the north of Ghana\u2014could make the task even more difficult.<\/p>\n
Both sides will be eager to claim vital points in this crucial matchday six encounter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
