Basake Holy Stars Football Club will be eager to build on last weekend’s morale-boosting victory when they host Vision Football Club at the Awulae Amihere Kpanyinli III Sports Arena in Ampain for a pivotal Matchday 10 encounter in the 2025/26 Ghana Premier League.
The Nzema-based side finally ended a difficult start to the season with a convincing 2-0 win over Bibiani Gold Stars in Week 9, ending a run of six defeats and two draws that had left them rooted in 17th place with just five points. Their campaign also features a postponed Matchday 3 fixture against Asante Kotoko, delayed due to the Porcupine Warriors’ CAF Confederation Cup commitments, a match that could prove decisive in their battle to escape the relegation zone.
Vision FC, on the other hand, come into this fixture with a mixed record. The experienced side has accumulated 12 points from three wins, three draws, and three losses, placing them 10th on the league table. Vision FC represent a stern test, particularly in away matches.
This weekend’s clash also carries the weight of an emerging rivalry. Basake Holy Stars and Vision FC first locked horns in the top flight following their promotions ahead of the 2024/25 season. Before the league campaign even began, Vision FC edged Holy Stars 1-0 in the Division One League Super Cup. During the 2024/25 league season, Vision FC again defeated Holy Stars 1-0 at the Nii Adjei Kraku II Park in Tema, though Holy Stars later avenged that loss with a 1-0 win in Week 22 at their home ground in Ampain, thanks to a composed strike from Dacosta Aboagye.
As anticipation builds, Basake Holy Stars will lean on renewed confidence, passionate home support, and the urgent need to rewrite their season’s narrative. Vision FC, however, will be determined to consolidate their mid-table position and snatch valuable points on the road.
