The Black Stars of Ghana will be aiming to bounce back against Cameroon on Saturday after their unconvincing 2-2 draw with the Benin in their opening Group F game.

As reported by our correspondent in Egypt, Coach Kwesi Appiah is expected to ring massive changes to the line up that failed to live up to expectations against the Squirrels.

Serbian-based winger Samuel Owusu is set to be handed his full debut following impressive cameo on Tuesday.

The 23 year old sensation will be ably assisted by Kwadwo Asamoah and Jordan Ayew in Ghana’s attack. Christian Atsu drops to the bench.

Afriyie Acquah is preferred to Mubarak Wakaso in a midfield that consist of Thomas Partey and Skipper Andre Ayew who made a timely return to the team’s final training session today.

Baba Rahman comes in for Lumor Agbeyenu in defense while Jonathan Mensah replaces the suspended John Boye.

Thomas Agyepong has been ruled out of the match through injury.

The match will kick off at the Ismailia Stadium at 5pm.

Below is Ghana’s probable line up for the clash with the Indomitable Lions:

Richard Ofori
Andy Yiadom
Baba Rahman
Kassim Nuhu
John Mensah
Afriyie Acquah
Thomas Partey
Andre Ayew
Jordan Ayew
Samuel Owusu
Kwadwo Asamoah
