Hearts of Oak in Danger of Relegation from Ghana Premier League

Accra-based football club, Hearts of Oak, is facing the looming possibility of relegation from the Ghana Premier League at the end of the 2023/24 football season. The team suffered a devastating 2-0 defeat against rivals Asante Kotoko in a recent match held at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium during Week 31 of the league campaign.

Following this loss, Hearts of Oak currently sits at the 14th position on the Ghana Premier League standings with a total of 38 points from 31 matches.
