Ghana is in the second spot of Group H with 3 points added to its name after winning 3-2 against South Korea. Addo’s side only needed one more win to make it to the top 16 of the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022. On the other hand, Uruguay is yet to land a win in the tournament. The opener with South Korea was surprisingly a goalless draw followed by a 2-0 loss against Portugal.
Alonso’s side looked good with the formation of 3-5-2; however, the double-goal attack led by Fernandes ended up delivering a sweet victory to Portugal.
Expect no changes to the squad, for Uruguay, is less likely to risk its position. With a record of 2 wins, 2 losses, and 2 draws, Uruguay will look to play not just for the knockouts but also to brighten up its record of the previous six matches.
Ghana will be comfortable even if it is a draw, provided South Korea loses with a big goal difference. Kudus will play to the best of his abilities, continuing the momentum he has gained so far in the tournament. There is a chance that Inaki will once again lead the strike as Samed joins Partey in the middle.
Predictions currently stand for a draw where both sides land one goal each. In other words, the final pool stage fixture of Group H is likely to go in favor of Ghana. Portugal is through to the knockout, and Ghana will not mind being the second team to join Cristiano Ronaldo’s side. Depending on how Ghana and Uruguay perform, the odds at some of the leading FIFA betting sites are likely to see sharp highs and lows.
Ghana vs Uruguay gets on the field of Al Janoub Stadium, Qatar, on December 02, 2022, at 3:00 pm UTC.
