Ghana Recent Form — Last 5
Key Factors
England's high-efficiency offense (4 goals from 1.85 xG vs Croatia) faces a regression risk against Ghana's low block.
Ghana is severely depleted in midfield with key stars Mohammed Kudus (thigh) and Thomas Partey (visa issues) both unavailable.
Tactical mismatch: Thomas Tuchel’s high-possession 4-3-3 vs Carlos Queiroz’s counter-attacking 4-5-1 setup.
England's defensive vulnerability shown in the 4-2 win over Croatia suggests Ghana's pace (Inaki Williams) could find transition opportunities.
Injuries & Absentees
England receives a boost as Bukayo Saka is declared pain-free (Achilles), though Declan Rice remains a minor hamstring doubt. Ghana faces a crisis: talisman Mohammed Kudus is out of the tournament, and starting GK Lawrence Ati-Zigi is a major doubt (groin). The absence of Kudus and Partey strips Ghana of their progressive passing and defensive transition cover.
