Prediction

  • Ghana played out a goalless draw with Namibia in their pre-tournament friendly on Monday.
  • The Black Stars didn't make it past the group stage in this competition two years ago, with disappointing defeats to Morocco and Comoros sealing their fate.
  • Cape Verde kept clean sheets in both of their last two World Cup qualifying matches in November.
  • The Blue Sharks made it into the last 16 of this competition in 2022 after taking points from matches against Ethiopia and Cameroon, but were knocked out by eventual champions Senegal.
  • Ghana could struggle to break down a defensively resolute Cape Verde side here, but should have enough quality to pick up a narrow victory.
