Asante Kotoko will host Ghana Premier League leaders Medeama SC at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium on Sunday, November 1, 2026, in a matchday nine fixture. Asante Kotoko enters the match looking to improve their standing after a 1-1 draw against FC Ashanti Gold ’04 last Sunday. The Kumasi-based club currently sits in eighth place with 12 points, having recorded two wins, one draw, and two losses in their last five matches. While the team has struggled with consistency, scoring and conceding nine goals during that stretch, they remain undefeated at home this season, having secured all three of their victories at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium. Historically, Kotoko has maintained a competitive record against Medeama at home, winning three, drawing one, and losing two of their last six league meetings at the venue since the 2020/21 season. Medeama SC travels to Kumasi holding the top spot in the league with 17 points from eight matches. The Tarkwa-based side enters the contest following a 1-0 victory over Aduana FC, a result that helped them recover from their first defeat of the season against FC Samartex 1996. Medeama has been the league’s most prolific attacking side, scoring 14 goals in their last five matches. Despite their strong form, Medeama’s away record remains a point of concern, with the team recording one win, two draws, and one loss in their four matches on the road this season. The upcoming fixture serves as a test of their title credentials as they face a Kotoko side aiming to climb the table. Both teams are expected to prioritize tactical discipline as they look to secure a result in this high-profile encounter.
