Coach Kwasi Appiah has made three changes ahead of the must win game against Cameroon in Group F AFCON 2019.

Deputy Skipper Kwadwo Asamoah makes his debut after he sat out of the 2-2 stalemate against Benin and will be expected to make a huge impact on the game.

Also making his debut is Baba Rahman who replaces Lumor on the left side of defence with Jonathan Mensah coming in for suspended John Boye.

Skipper Dede Ayew shook off an injury scare in the game against Benin and will be making another start in today’s encounter.

Ghana needs a win, their first against Cameroon in an AFCON tournament to boost the confidence of the team that has been under a barrage of criticism after their first match.

Ghana XI vs Cameroon:

Richard Ofori
Andy Yiadom
Baba Rahman
Kassim Nuhu
Jonathan Mensah
Mubarak Wakaso
Thomas Partey
Andre Ayew
Jordan Ayew
Christian Atsu
Kwadwo Asamoah
