The rest of the team stays same from last Thursday with Richard Ofori in goal, Kassim Nuhu, Gideon Mensah, Joseph Aidoo and Andy Yiadom completing the back four.

The midfield will see Baba Iddrisu, Thomas Partey in the deep positions with Emmanuel Boateng, Andre Ayew and Samuel Owusu playing behind Jordan Ayew.

The match kicks off at 1pm Ghana time at the July 12 National Stadium in Sao Tome.

Here is Ghana’s starting lineup:
Richard Ofori
Andy Yiadom
Joseph Aidoo
Kassim Nuhu
Gideon Mensah
Thomas Partey
Baba Iddrisu
Samuel Owusu

The Black Stars are seeking to maintain their one hundred per cent start to the completion this afternoon against a Sào Tome side seeking redemption at home after they were thrashed 4:0 at home by Sudan on matchday one.

South Africa defeated Sudan 1:0 yesterday on matchday two, and the Black Stars will go top of the group with maximum points with a win against Sao Tome this after.
