<p>Chris Hughton has named a familiar line-up for his side’s must-win game against the Mambas at the Alassane Ouattara Stadium.</p>

<p>Richard Ofori maintains his position between the sticks, with the back four of Denis Odoi, Gideon Mensah, Mohammed Salisu and Alexander Djiku also unchanged.</p>

<p>In midfield, Abdul Salis Samed takes his place as the anchor, while Majeed Ashimeru has recovered in time to also start alongside the Lens man.</p>

<p>Jordan Ayew also makes his third successive start at the 2023 AFCON after being deployed at left-wing, with Joseph Paintsil also making a return to the starting line-up on the opposite flank.</p>

<p>West Ham United star Mohammed Kudus is once again tasked with being Ghana’s creative force and will be playing behind striker Antoine Semenyo.</p>

<p>Hughton’s side has failed to win any of their first two group matches after losing to Cape Verde and drawing against Egypt.</p>

<p>However, Ghana have an opportunity to make amends ahead of their crucial final Group B game against Mozambique on Monday evening.</p>

<p>A win would take the Black Stars to four points, which could just be enough to secure them second place or one of the best four third-place slots.</p>
