All is set for Ghana's game against Egypt at the Accra Sports Stadium on Tuesday, October 28.
The Black Queens come up against the Cleopatras in the second leg of their 2026 Women's Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) Qualifiers.
Kim Lars Bjorkegren's side commands a healthy lead following their 3-0 win in Ismailia last Thursday with goals from Doris Boaduwaa, Mary Amponsah and Grace Asantewaa.
The Queens featured at the last edition of the continental showpiece and are hoping make a return to the stage again next year in Morocco.
The team trained for the first time on Monday evening at the Accra Sports Stadium after days of boycotting training due to unpaid bonuses from their medal-winning performance in Morocco.
Speaking ahead of the game, Bjorkegren said, "We are happy to be back on the pitch and do final preparations for an important game against Egypt.
"We have put ourselves in a good situation [to qualify] with the 3-0 win but it's just like halftime so we need and close this door now."
The gaffer also spoke about the need for his side to avoid complacency considering their advantage rom the first leg.
The game is scheduled for a 3:30pm kickoff at the Accra Sports Stadium.
The 2026 WAFCON will also serve as the qualifiers for the 2027 Women's World Cup to be staged in Brazil.
