Portugal vs Ghana Prediction & Betting Tips - World Cup

Prediction published on 22/11/2022, 13:52 by Daniel Ngulu | Modified on 24/11/2022 at 04:47 in World Cup Prediction

Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo’s comments about Manchester United almost threatened to overshadow Portugal’s preparations for the 2022 World Cup but the former European champions are all set to start their journey in Qatar. They will be opening their campaign with a game against Ghana in Group H at the 974 Stadium in Doha on Thursday. The group also has Uruguay and Korea Republic and thus these two will be gunning for a good start. Both are coming from wins in their pre-World Cup friendly matches and will thus be confident.

Portugal - Ghana: Form Analysis

Portugal’s 4-0 win over Nigeria in their friendly match ahead of this game was another show of strength from the former European champions, yet their best player, Cristiano Ronaldo didn’t even feature. They go into this game having scored 10 times in the last five matches; six of those goals were in home and away clashes against the Czech Republic in the UEFA Nations League, then four against Nigeria in the most recent game. As Portugal head into this game, they will hope to keep up their attacking trends which has resulted in scoring more than a goal in six of their last 10 games. The Portuguese have also done well in defence, keeping five clean sheets in eight matches, and Serbia are the only opponents to have scored twice against Portugal in the last 10 matches. The Portuguese lost 2-1 on that occasion which remains one of the three defeats they have suffered in their last 10 matches. Ghana, on the other hand, have established a good run with two wins in their last two matches ahead of this game. In their pre-tournament friendly match, they beat Switzerland 2-0 after having earlier defeated Nicaragua 1-0 in September. A 3-0 loss to Brazil had come before that, but a run of just three wins in their last 13 matches is what further pits Ghana as the underdogs here. Ghana have managed to score more than just a single goal in three of their last 10 matches. Furthermore, they don’t boast a great record in their World Cup appearances as they are winless in the last four.

Portugal & Ghana Squad Analysis

Portugal star Cristiano Ronaldo’s contract with Manchester United has been terminated after an interview in which he slammed the club. Heading into this game, he will surely be the man under the most scrutiny but he will have to stay focused on the task at hand. The last time he scored an international goal was in June of 2022 and he will be looking to end that drought. Ronaldo was absent in the friendly win over Nigeria as he was ill, but he has indicated he is fully fit and well ahead of this game. With that, the manager will have a lot of options to pick from as the team currently has no fresh injury concerns. Diogo Jota didn’t travel with the team after sustaining an injury while at Liverpool. Bruno Fernandes scored twice against Nigeria and he will hope his creative partnership with Bernardo Silva continues to bear fruit in midfield. Ghana are without goalkeeper Jojo Wollacott, who was injured ahead of this tournament. In his absence, coach Otto Addo is expected to continue with Lawrence Ati Zigi in goal after his clean sheet against Switzerland. Thomas Partey was an unused sub in that game to preserve him for this one and he will be a sure starter while Inaki Williams is set to get his first competitive start for Ghana after switching nationality from Spain.

Our Portugal vs Ghana Prediction

The last time Portugal met Ghana was in the 2014 World Cup, in a game Portugal won 2-1. That happens to be their only meeting in history. As they face off again in 2022, they will both be looking to get off to a good start and carry over the momentum which saw them each win their final pre-tournament warm-up match. Ghana have however not had a great run in their recent matches, and especially in competitive matches where they have just one win in the last seven. Portugal have been in better shape, especially in attack and with 10 goals scored in three of their last five matches, they have gone to the break leading in four of their last six matches and we are backing the same here.

Portugal wins at half-time

Ghana to score

Over 2.5 goals

Portugal are strong favorites for a win in this game. With a run of six wins in their last nine matches, they will approach this game the more confident and as we back them to win, it means over 2.5 goals will be seen in this clash.
