Ghanaian giants Hearts of Oak are on course for their first league title in 11 years after defeating their arch-rivals Kumasi Asante Kotoko 1-0 in their tough match in Accra on Sunday.

The Accra-based side has taken a three points lead at the top of the table thanks to their win via a solitary strike by in-form midfielder Daniel Afriyie Barnie in their top-of-the-table clash.

The two giants were level on 56 points ahead of Sunday's match at the Accra Sports Stadium but the victory over the Porcupines, who was second-placed,  means Hearts have now taken a three-point lead.

Hearts of Oak now have 59 points from 31 matches while Kotoko has 56 points after the same number of matches played according to the statistic from Livescore.com.gh.
