Ghana seek to break a string of disappointing results, having failed to secure a victory so far in 2024. Their last win came against Madagascar in the World Cup qualifiers, followed by a loss to Comoros, a winless run at the Africa Cup of Nations, another defeat to Nigeria, and a recent draw with Uganda.
