Ghana Preview – Can Ghana gain 1st leg advantage?
Ghana had a somewhat fortuitous passage into this 3rd round qualifying stage of the World Cup as they ousted South Africa on goal difference in Group G with Ghana going through by virtue of scoring one goal better than their counterparts.
Ghana may have qualified for this stage of the proceedings thanks to home and away wins against Zimbabwe along with victories over Ethiopia and South Africa but results in recent times have been disappointing; Ghana have lost three of their last four games overall, two of which were in the Africa Cup of Nations to Morocco and Comoros.
Nigeria Preview – Can Nigeria bounce back?
Nigeria have lost just once in their last seven games overall in all competitions which came in the form of a 1-0 loss to Tunisia in the Africa Cup of Nations but the visitors had previously won five of their preceding six games.
World Cup qualifier wins against Central African Republic and Liberia were further boosted by victories over Egypt, Sudan and Guinea-Bissau in the Africa Cup of Nations so the visitors will fancy their chances of at least holding their own in this 1st leg tie at the Baba Yara Stadium.
