" GPL: Hearts of Oak and Asante Kotoko set for explosive Super Clash in Accra on Sunday \r\n\r\nThe stage is set for Ghana\u2019s biggest football rivalry as Hearts of Oak and Asante Kotoko lock horns in the first Super Clash of the 2025\/26 Ghana Premier League season at the Accra Sports Stadium on Sunday, November 9, 2025.\r\n\r\nThe encounter marks the 118th meeting between the two most successful clubs in Ghanaian football history, with both sides unbeaten and eager to stake their claim in this season\u2019s title race.\r\n\r\nHearts of Oak: unbeaten and confident under Didi Dramani\r\n\r\nHearts of Oak enter this highly anticipated fixture in fine form under head coach Mas-Ud Didi Dramani, who has revitalised the Phobians with a disciplined and structured approach. The Accra-based giants remain unbeaten after eight matches, recording four wins and four draws, their longest unbeaten league run since 2020 (W9, D6).\r\n\r\nCurrently third on the table with 16 points, just two behind leaders Aduana FC, Hearts have built their early-season success on defensive solidity. They have scored eight goals and conceded only three, the second-lowest defensive record in the league.\r\n\r\nHowever, the Phobians\u2019 home form has been less convincing, with one win and three draws at the Accra Sports Stadium this season, managing just three goals and conceding two. Despite that, Hearts haven\u2019t lost a home league match since April 2025, when Nations FC edged them 1-0. That resilience, coupled with their unbeaten start, provides optimism heading into Sunday\u2019s showdown.\r\n\r\nAsante Kotoko: Resurgent and Relentless\r\n\r\nAsante Kotoko travel to the capital brimming with confidence after an emphatic 4-2 victory over Karela United at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium last weekend, a result that reignited their campaign. The Porcupine Warriors, currently 8th on the table with 11 points, have played fewer matches than any other team due to three outstanding fixtures, which could significantly alter their position in the coming weeks.\r\n\r\nHead coach Abdul Karim Zito has instilled tactical discipline and defensive solidity, with Kotoko boasting the best defensive record in the league, having conceded just two goals all season. They have also kept four clean sheets in their last five games, a testament to their organization and resilience.\r\n\r\nKotoko\u2019s away form adds to their confidence, as they remain unbeaten on the road this season (W1, D1), without conceding a single goal. Their recent record at the Accra Sports Stadium is equally impressive, remaining unbeaten in their last two visits (W1, D1).\r\n\r\nHead-to-Head\r\n\r\nSince 2020, Hearts of Oak and Asante Kotoko have met five times at the Accra Sports Stadium in the Premier League, with the Phobians recording two wins, two draws, and one defeat (W2, D2, L1).\r\n\r\nThe stage is set\r\n\r\nWith both teams unbeaten and determined to make a statement, Sunday\u2019s Super Clash promises to deliver the passion, intensity and spectacle that define Ghana\u2019s greatest football rivalry. For Hearts, it\u2019s a chance to reinforce their title credentials and delight their home supporters. For Kotoko, it\u2019s an opportunity to extend their unbeaten run and announce their resurgence in style.\r\n\r\nThe Accra Sports Stadium will once again be the theatre of dreams, where history, pride and glory collide in the battle between the Phobians and the Porcupine Warriors."
