All eyes will be on Swedru on Matchday 17, as the Swedru All Blacks play in-form Asante Kotoko in what might be a pivotal night for head coach Ahmed Fathi.
According to reports, the club's hierarchy is seriously considering dismissing him if he fails to beat Kotoko, adding great pressure to an already high-stakes encounter.
On the pitch, the All Blacks have demonstrated resilience in recent weeks. They have won two, lost one, and drawn two of their previous five Ghana Premier League games, keeping them competitive but not quite immune from danger.
At home, they have made their ground a difficult place to visit, remaining unbeaten in six matches and conceding only three goals, a record that gives Fathi some encouragement heading into this vital meeting.
Kotoko arrives in ruthless form, pursuing a fourth straight league victory after a 6–0 win in their previous outing, and having the division's most lethal assault. For Fathi, this game means more than simply three points; it might determine his future on the Swedru All Blacks bench.

BREAKING: AngloGold Ashanti Iduapriem Mine will announce $200,000 sponsorship for Medeama ahead of the Hearts of Oak encounter.
AngloGold Ashanti Iduapriem Mine is scheduled to officially announce a huge USD 200,000 sponsorship package for Medeama SC, providing a much-needed boost ahead of the club's high-profile Ghana Premier League match against Hearts of Oak on Sunday.
The announcement will finalise the agreement, which GhanaSoccernet exclusively disclosed earlier this season when the mining corporation was confirmed as the club's official headline sponsor. The most recent development is the official signature of the one-year renewable agreement.
The sponsorship is intended to enhance Medeama's financial condition while also instilling confidence in the players as they prepare for a match that might decide the title race. Medeama enters the weekend hoping to win and remain at the top of the league table.
This recent investment strengthens AngloGold Ashanti's developing association with the Tarkwa-based team. During Medeama's participation in the 2023 CAF Champions League, the corporation gave financial support of USD 100,000, establishing the groundwork for future collaboration.
The additional funding is seen as part of a larger effort to assure stability and competitiveness on and off the field. At a time when many local clubs are experiencing financial difficulties, the arrangement places Medeama among the more financially secure sides in the Ghana Premier League.
Beyond the immediate focus on the Hearts of Oak game, the sponsorship is intended to benefit player welfare, logistics, and the club's entire operations as Medeama strives for continued success this season.
