Ghana’s possible line-up against Switzerland – Pre-World Cup friendly

Ghana will on Thursday morning face Switzerland in the Middle East in an international friendly ahead of the FIFA World Cup.

It is a final warm-up match for the four-time African champions before they head to the Gulf nation for the global competition which gets underway on November 20.

In their last friendly in September, Ghana defeated Nicaragua 1-0 at Francisco Artes Carrasco in Spain following a 3-0 defeat to Brazil in France.

In this fixture, Otto Addo’s concern will be in the goalkeeping department due to the absence of Richard Ofori and Jojo Woollcott who were both injured in club action and did not make the 26-man squad.

However, the Dortmund trainer will be forced to make the final decision on his first choice from Lawrence Ati-Zigi of St Gallen, Asante Kotoko’s Danlad Ibrahim, and Manaf Nurudeen of Kas Eupen.

But in our possible line-up, Ati-Zigi is having the upper hand to start ahead of the other two goalkeepers.

In the backline, Tariq Lamptey, Salisu Mohammed, Alexander Djiku, and Gideon Mensah are expected to earn the starting berth.

Inaki and Jordan Ayew should be seen leading the line for Ghana with Andre Ayew and Kamaldeen Sulemana operating from wings while Kudus and Partey start in midfield.

The game will kick off at 10:00am at the Al Nahyan Stadium in U.A.E.

Tariq Lamptey

Salisu Mohammed

Alexander Djiku

Gideon Mensah
