The Ghana national team has been making some strategic decisions ahead of their upcoming matches, particularly in terms of their starting lineup.
In goal, Lawrence Ati-Zigi has been a consistent choice for coach Otto Addo, starting in all four qualifiers. Despite competition from Jojo Wollacott, Ati-Zigi is expected to maintain his position as the first-choice goalkeeper for Ghana.
In defense, there have been some adjustments due to injury concerns. Alidu Seidu is likely to retain his spot at right-back, with Gideon Mensah on the left. In the absence of key players like Alexander Djiku and Mohammed Salisu, debutant Terry Yegbe is expected to partner with Razak Simpson in the central defensive positions.
Moving into midfield, Elisha Owusu and Ibrahim Sulemana are expected to pair up in the central positions. On the wings, Enerst Nuamah and Fatawu Issahaku will likely provide width, with Mohammed Kudus operating in the central attacking role as the creative playmaker.
Up front, Jordan Ayew is set to lead the attack as the lone striker, with injuries ruling out Antoine Semenyo and Inaki Williams from contention.
In summary, the predicted starting XI for Ghana’s upcoming matches is as follows:
– Goalkeeper: Lawrence Ati-Zigi
– Defenders: Alidu Seidu (RB), Razak Simpson (CB), Terry Yegbe (CB), Gideon Mensah (LB)
– Midfielders: Elisha Owusu (CM), Ibrahim Sulemana (CM), Enerst Nuamah (LW), Fatawu Issahaku (RW), Mohammed Kudus (CAM)
These decisions have been made based on the team’s current form, injuries, and tactical considerations, and will be crucial in Ghana’s quest for success in their upcoming fixtures.
