They lost their opening game against Cameroon, but they pulled up a surprise when they held Benin to a goalless draw in their second group game.
Guinea Bissau can also qualify for the knockout stage as runners up or pick one of the four slots for the best third-placed finishers if they beat Ghana.
The African Wild Dogs have lost 3 of their last 4 matches (AFCON)
Guinea Bissau’s poor record at the Africa Cup of Nations means they will need to be at their very best to come anywhere close to matching Ghana. Their poor attack is unlikely to get its first goal against Ghana.
Striker Frederic Mendy is in line to start in attack despite failing to find the net in both matches at this AFCON. The defensive partnership of Juary and Marcelo Dialo is also set to continue at the back despite struggling against the class of Cameroon in their opening match.
