Richard Ofori maintains his position between the sticks, with the back four of Denis Odoi, Gideon Mensah, Mohammed Salisu and Alexander Djiku also unchanged.

Jordan Ayew also makes his third successive start at the 2023 AFCON after being deployed at left-wing, with Joseph Paintsil also making a return to the starting line-up on the opposite flank.
West Ham United star Mohammed Kudus is once again tasked with being Ghana’s creative force and will be playing behind striker Antoine Semenyo.
Hughton’s side has failed to win any of their first two group matches after losing to Cape Verde and drawing against Egypt.
However, Ghana have an opportunity to make amends ahead of their crucial final Group B game against Mozambique on Monday evening.
