Samartex gaffer Nurudeen Amadu made a couple of changes to the squad that were beaten 2-0 by Nations FC last week with Ebenezer Acquah replacing James Sewornu while Gabriel Bonnah returned to the start list.
Bismark Kobi-Mensah made only one alteration to the squad that pipped Dreams FC in the last round with club legend Augustine Okrah making his first start of the campaign.
Okrah rejoined Bechem after ending his adventure in Tanzania with Simba SC at the end of the 2022-23 season.
Elsewhere at the El-Wak Sports Stadium, Legon Cities picked up their second win of the season against Aduana Stars.
Nicholas Mensah & Samuel Armah got the goals for the Royals. It was the first time Paa Kwesi Fabin faced his former side Aduana Stars after guiding the Ogya Boys to a second-place finish last season.
