Ghana Football Association (GFA) has unveiled the fixtures for the 2024-25 Ghana Premier League season, set to kick off on Friday, September 6, 2024, just 82 days after the conclusion of the 2023/24 season.

Defending champions FC Samartex 1996 will commence their title defense with an away game against Dreams FC. Hearts of Oak will face newly promoted Basake Holy Stars at home, while Asante Kotoko SC will travel to Karela United for their opening match.

Match Day 1 promises thrilling encounters, including former champions Medeama SC hosting last season’s runners-up, Accra Lions. Newly promoted Vision FC will play Berekum Chelsea at home, Nsoatreman FC will take on Young Apostles, Aduana FC will face Heart of Lions, Gold Stars FC will meet Legon Cities, and Nations FC will clash with Bechem United.

The highly anticipated first leg of Ghana’s Super Clash between Asante Kotoko SC and Accra Hearts of Oak is scheduled for Match Day 13 at Baba Yara Stadium, with the return fixture on Match Day 30 at Accra Sports Stadium.

The Brong Ahafo derbies will feature Nsoatreman FC hosting Berekum Chelsea on Match Day 3, Bechem United on Match Day 9, and Aduana FC on Match Day 11. Additionally, Aduana FC will face Bechem United on Match Days 2 and 19, while Berekum Chelsea will meet Bechem United on Match Day 11.

Western derbies will see Medeama SC and Basake Holy Stars clash on Match Days 4 and 21, and FC Samartex battling GoldStars FC on Match Days 2 and 19. The Ashanti derby between Asante Kotoko SC and Nations FC is set for Match Days 11 and 28.

The final matches of the season include FC Samartex 1996 traveling to Accra Hearts of Oak, Asante Kotoko visiting debutants Vision FC, Dreams FC hosting Legon Cities, Nations FC facing Heart of Lions at home, Aduana Stars entertaining Basake Holy Stars, Bechem United playing Young Apostles, Karela United welcoming Nsoatreman FC, and Medeama hosting Berekum Chelsea.

The league will begin on the weekend of Friday, September 6, 2024, and run until Sunday, June 8, 2025, spanning 34 weekends with no official midweek matchdays to reduce travel strain on clubs. There will be a one-week break before the December 7, 2024, National Elections, allowing players and officials to vote.

Anticipation is high among fans, with hopes of winning the title, qualifying for African competitions, or simply retaining Premier League status.

Complete fixtures for the 2024-25 Ghana Premier League season are now available.
