The Under-20 teams of Ghana and Nigeria will do battle on August 15 at the Ohene Djan Stadium in Accra, officials have announced.

Nigeria's build-up to the World Youth Championship in Egypt in September has suffered several snags.

A friendly on the request of tournament hosts Egypt was recently called off at the last minute.

Ghana's preparation for Egypt 2009 has also suffered some drawbacks. Trips to both Venezuela and South Africa were cancelled.

Before the Accra friendly, Nigeria plan a training camp in Qatar early next month, while the Satellites hope to play two games against South Korea in the final week of July.

Besides Nigeria and Ghana, Africa will be represented by Cameroon, South Africa and host nation Egypt at this year's World Youth Championship.
