Jonathan Mensah returns to the Ghana starting team as Sellas Tetteh makes two changes for the crucial group A match against hosts, Rwanda at the African Youth Championship.

The inclusion of the defender is one of the two changes to the Black Satellites line up that started in the two previous games.

Mensah, who has missed two games in the competition, partners Daniel Addo in central defence as Philip Boampong drops to the bench.

The other change by Sellas Tetteh is the starting role handed Isaac Donkor in place of Abeiku Quansah.

Ghana, who remain on top with four points from two matches, lead Rwanda on goal difference and could go through to the next stage even with a draw from their clash at the Amahoro Stadium.

Line up:
Daniel Adjei, Samuel Inkoom, David Addy, Jonathan Mensah, Daniel Addo, Gladson Awaku, Isaac Donkor, Emmanuel Agyeman Badu, Dominic Adiyah, Ransford Osei and Andre Ayew.

Subs: Joseph Addo, Philip Boampong, Kassenu Ghandi, Godfred Rockson, Enoch Adu-Kofi, Latif Salifu, Abeiku Quansah
