Black Stars head coach Otto Addo has set sights on continuing Ghana's winning streak and will thus name a strong line-up for Ghana's 2025 AFCON qualifiers against Angola today, September 5, 2024.

The line-up could see five changes from the team that beat the Central African Republic back in June.

Jordan Ayew, who started the CAR game, could start from the bench due to his late arrival, while Gideon Mensah, Kamaldeen Sulemana, Salis Samed, and Alexander Djiku are all unavailable for the match tonight.

Ebenezer Annan, Abdul Mumin, Majeed Ashimeru, Inaki Williams, and Antoine Semenyo could replace the aforementioned quintet in the starting eleven.

Otto Addo could set his team up in a preferred 4-2-3-1 formation with Lawrence Ati-Zigi in goal behind a back four of Alidu Seidu, Mohammed Salisu, Mumin, and Annan.

Thomas Partey and Majeed Ashimeru could be the pivot, with Fatawu Issahaku and Inaki Williams on the flanks.

Mohammed Kudus could play behind Antoine Semenyo who would be tasked to lead the attacking line.

The game is scheduled at 16:00 GMT kickoff time.
