The big clash is one of the weekend’s six games on match-day-22 with two other fixtures rescheduled for next Wednesday in the Glo Premier League.
Two games will be honoured today as leaders, Aduana Stars travel to the Anane Boateng Stadium to meet Kessben FC. At the Golden City Park, Chelsea and New Edubiase will be attempting to play out of relegation when both sides meet.
