Bibiani Gold Stars claimed their first-ever Ghana Premier League title after beating Accra Lions by 4-0 at the Duns Park on Sunday.
Gold Stars sit top of the 2024/25 season table on 63 points – three above Nations FC who lost 2-0 at home to Heart of Lions.
Nations are awaiting a decision by the Ghana Football Association after they walked out midway into their Week 33 fixture against Basake Holy Stars. They will remain on 60 points if the decision goes against them but the reverse means they move to 63 points but an inferior head-to-head to Gold Stars gives the Bibiani-based club their maiden title.
In the battle for positions in the top four, the 2-0 victory for Heart of Lions over Nation, kept them in third on 60 points with Hearts of Oak and Asante Kotoko sharing the fourth spot on 58 points apiece.
Per the head-to-head tiebreaker, Asante Kotoko are currently in fourth place after defeating rivals Hearts by 1-0 in the first round with their reverse fixture ending goalless.
Kotoko failed to clinch an automatic top four after suffering a humiliating 3-1 loss against Vision FC at the Nii Adjei Okraku II Complex in Tema. Hearts of Oak on the other hand kept their top chase intact with a last day victory over Samartex at the Accra Sports Stadium.
