Addis Ababa – St. George and EEPCO, two of Ethiopia’s oldest teams and one-time rivals will face each other on Sunday in Week 11 of the Ethiopian Premier League (EPL).
The two sides have won 10 of the last 13 Ethiopian Premier League titles, with St. George clinching a staggering 8 championships.
The anticipation and expectation when the two teams met in the past was mind blowing. The stadium will be filled to capacity and football fans were never disappointed as they would witness great technical ability and amazing goals.
But these days, a match between the two teams is no longer seen as a big ticket item, and the fact that the two sides are languishing at the bottom of the table, doesn’t help either.

ethiopian primear league is now become very compitative. but the one who have experiance won it. and that is sanjorge.
St george is like phoenix. It flies and crashes then comes out of the ash to win trophies. We have done it countless times unlike the pathetic coffee! And elpa atleast has the silverware. It is a hell of a game just coz some coffee skunks dont come to see it doesnt make it less interesting.
