Muntari hasn't played for the Black Stars since
the 2014 World Cup

Ghana will host Kenya in the final Africa Cup of
Nations qualifiers at the Accra Sports Stadium on
23rd March 2019.

The Black Stars suffered 1:0 defeat to the
Harambee Stars at the Karasani Stadium in
September last year.

Though both teams have qualified for the finals in
Egypt in June, it will be about the bragging
rights when the game takes place.

Group F but a draw or win for Kenya will see them
emerge as winners of the group.

23-man squad is set to deploy one of the most
widely used systems in professional soccer ,which
is the 4-2-3-1 formation for the final qualifier.

HotfmOnlinegh.com’s source for the match,
Richard Ofori will maintain his position as the
number one stopper, the back four will consist of
Kasim Nuhu,John Boys,Harrison Afful and inter
Milan star Kwadwo Asamoah.

midfielders to destroy the moves of the Kenyans,
Atsu, Thomas Partey and Crystal Palace forward
Jordan Ayew will be expected to help both the
defensive midfielders and the lone Striker
Richmond Boakye Yiadom.

Richmond Boakye Yiadom who will lead the attack is
currently in the form of his life and expected to
replicate his fine form when he gets the chance to
