After a disappointing Copa America, Mano Menezes' side will hope for a change in form at Craven Cottage whilst Ghana look to improve on their recent impressive performances

PROBABLE LINE-UPS

Brazil (4-3-1-2): Julio Cesar, Daniel Alves, Lucio, Thiago Silva, Marcelo; Lucas Leiva, Fernandinho, Ganso; Ronaldinho; Neymar, Leandro Damiao

Mano Menezes has made a number of changes to his squad following a disappointing Copa America. Leandro Damiao and Ronaldinho have been recalled due to their consistent performances in the Brasileiro and could be rewarded with starting spots. Marcelo is likely to start in defence following the withdrawal of Barcelona's Adriano. Robinho also withdrew from the squad due to injury but no replacement was needed as Menezes judged his remaining attacking options sufficient.

Ghana (4-2-3-1): Kwarasey; Paintsil, Mensah, Vorsah, Opare; D. Boateng, Agyemang-Badu; Adiyiah, A. Ayew, Muntari; Tagoe

Following a number of changes to the starting line-up ahead of their 2-0 AFCON qualification victory over Swaziland, Goran Stevanovic may stick to a similar side. Norway-born goalkeeper Adam Kwarasey kept a clean sheet on his debut so may well hold on to his position. The Black Stars will be without two key players in Asamoah Gyan and John Mensah due to injury, with the latter being replaced in defence by his namesake who plays his club football for Evian in France

DID YOU KNOW?

Brazil have won their last five games on British soil against a variety of opponents. Their last defeat in the UK came almost 20 years ago in 1991. The match took place in Cardiff and Wales earned a 1-0 victory.

Ronaldinho has been recalled to the Brazilian squad following a renaissance in the Brasileiro. He could make his first appearance for the national team in 9 months.

The Selecao are looking for their first win in two games after defeat to Paraguay on penalties was followed by a loss to Germany.

Brazil came out on top the last time the two teams met. Vagner Love netted the only goal of the game in a friendly match in Sweden.

Ghana are currently unbeaten during their AFCON qualification campaign. The Black Stars have never defeated Brazil in a senior international game. The African side have impressed with their performances recently and have only lost one of their last nine games. That defeat coming at the hands of South Korea in a friendly match.

Ghana's last game in the UK was a spirited performance against the English national team at Wembley. The Black Stars performed well and earned a 1-1 draw.
