Ghana Premier League (GPL) outfit, Sekondi Hasaacas could face an uphill task to survive this season’s championship if they do not improve on their away performance.
The Westerners were beaten comprehensively by All Stars at Wa in their opening day fixture of the 2015/16 season and even at this early stage of the competition, they are being classified as candidates for relegation.
Last season, they struggled in most of their away games and only survived the season thanks to their home record which eventually ensured that they finished in mid table.
This season could turn up to be a different preposition all together especially so as they had a very low pre-season preparation and at a point, players went on strike for not being paid for over six months.
Hasaacas’ next game is at home to new entrants Techiman City on Saturday at the Essipong Stadium and, this is a must win game for them as they have some tough battles coming up against fierce opposition.
After the Techiman City game, they will visit Sogakope to taste the wrath of inform WAFA with further away games in this first round to come against Asante Kotoko, Aduana Stars, Dreams FC, Hearts of Oak and Bechem United.
On paper, these are tough duels to negotiate for the Sekondi based club, and they will have a lot on their hands in trying to maximize enough points from these games.
Most of their points this season will no doubt be won at home and, they will like to set that off with a win over Techiman City before they encounter further tests against AshantiGold, Berekum Chelsea, Medeama SC, Liberty Professionals, New Edubiase United, Ebusua Dwarfs and Inter Allies.
This is surely a tough call for Hasaacas and we wait to see how they confront these games before we head into the crucial second round to determine whether they will survive the league or not.
The task is on Coach Basigi and the rest of his technical team to prove that they will be up to the task of keeping Hasaacas in the league.
