Black Stars head coach Otto Addo is expected to field a strong lineup when Ghana take on Austria in an international friendly at the Ernst Happel Stadium today, March 27, 2026.
Otto Addo could be blending experience with youth as he continues to shape his squad ahead of the World Cup. However, team could see no significant changes than regular faces.
In goal, Benjamin Asare is tipped to start, protected by a back four of Caleb Yirenkyi at right-back, with Alexander Djiku and Jonas Adjetey forming the central defensive partnership, while Gideon Mensah slots in at left-back.
The midfield is expected to feature a double pivot, with Kwesi Sibo partnering Thomas Partey to provide both defensive cover and control in possession.
Out wide, Abdul Fatawu Issahaku is likely to operate on the right flank, with Antoine Semenyo deployed on the left to offer pace and attacking threat.
In attack, Jordan Ayew is expected to lead the line, supported closely by Prince Adu Kwabena, forming a fluid front two aimed at troubling the Austrian defense.
The friendly presents a key opportunity for the Black Stars to fine-tune their tactics and assess squad depth against a strong European opponent.
Kickoff scheduled for 17:00 GMT.
