Swedru All Blacks will be aiming to return to winning ways when they host Asante Kotoko SC at the Swedru Sports Stadium on Saturday, October 10, 2026.

The Black Magicians head into the encounter looking to halt a three-game winless run after suffering their second defeat of the campaign last weekend. They surrendered an early lead before eventually falling to a 2-1 defeat against Aduana FC in Dormaa.

The result extended their inconsistent run to one win, two draws and two defeats in their last five league matches, leaving them eager to respond in front of their home supporters.

Despite their recent struggles, Swedru All Blacks have made a positive start at home this season. They remain unbeaten in their opening two league games at the Swedru Sports Stadium, recording one win and one draw. They will also draw confidence from their previous meeting with Kotoko at the venue, having secured a 2-1 victory over the Porcupine Warriors during the 2025/26 season.

Asante Kotoko travel to Swedru with renewed confidence after ending a two-game winless streak with a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Karela United FC in Kumasi.

The result lifted the Porcupine Warriors to eighth on the league table with eight points from their opening five matches. They have recorded two wins, two draws and one defeat, while scoring six goals and conceding six.

However, Kotoko are still searching for their first away victory of the campaign. They have collected just two points from their opening two away fixtures, drawing both matches, with three goals scored and three conceded.

The Ghanaian giants will therefore be determined to turn their improved form into a first road victory when they make the trip to Swedru.

With both sides looking to build momentum, Saturday’s encounter promises to be a closely contested affair.

Swedru All Blacks will be banking on their unbeaten home record and the support of their fans, while Kotoko will hope their recent victory provides the spark needed to secure maximum points on the road.
