To prevent another relegation battle this season, Hearts of Oak head coach Abubakar Ouattara has reaffirmed his commitment to making sure the team earns the most points possible in each game.
Last season, the Phobians almost avoided relegation after a contentious victory over Bechem United on the last day guaranteed their survival.
With 28 points from 16 games, Hearts of Oak is only two points behind the league leaders and in fifth place in the Ghana Premier League rankings this season.
The team now has almost two weeks to get ready for their FA Cup match against Home Stars on Sunday, followed by their next league game against FC Samartex on January 19.
The game takes place on January 19. There are more than two weeks between January 3 and January 19. We will adequately prepare.
"We have to earn as many points as possible to escape relegation, so every game is difficult for us. We do not want to experience the same difficulties as last season when we were struggling to remain up. We are committed to putting in the required work this year.
