Ghana coach Otto Addo has made bold changes to his starting XI for the Group I Matchday Six World Cup qualifier against Chad today, leaving out Thomas Partey and Mohammed Salisu.
Captain Jordan Ayew, alongside Mohammed Kudus and Inaki Williams, will spearhead the Black Stars’ attack in the crucial encounter.
Hearts of Oak goalkeeper Benjamin Asare gets the nod ahead of Lawrence Ati Zigi, continuing in goal after his impressive recent outings.
Addo has opted for a back-three system with Jonas Adjetey, Jereme Opoku, and Gideon Mensah tasked with defensive duties.
In midfield, the quartet of Elisha Owusu, Abdul Samed, Mohammed Kudus, and Caleb Yirenkyi will look to control the game and provide creativity.
Up front, Antoine Semenyo, Jordan Ayew, and Inaki Williams carry the responsibility of finding the goals to secure another vital win for Ghana.
Kick-off time is scheduled at 1pm Local time.
The two national teams have only met once before, on March 21, 2025. On that occasion, Ghana cruised to a resounding 5-0 victory over Chad at the Accra Sports Stadium.
