One of the favorites of the 2022 FIFA World Cup, Portugal will begin their conquest against African side Ghana in their group stage opener and will be adamant to take all three points. In the 2018’s edition, they looked very impressive but their run came to an end in the hands of Uruguay in the round of 16 stage and this time with a much more improved side, they will be a serious contender for the trophy.
On the other hand, Ghana who could not qualify for the precious tournament in 2018, are prepared to upset the heavyweights in their group and they will hope to progress to the later stages of the tournament. With players like Inaki Williams and Tariq Lamptey gaining citizenship in Ghana, there is no shortage of superstars, and the team is filled with experienced players.
