Wales and Ghana have confirmed their starting line-ups ahead of their international friendly, with Ghana using the fixture as an important test as preparations continue for upcoming FIFA world cup.
The hosts, Wales, line up in a 4-2-3-1 formation with Karl Darlow starting in goal behind a back four of Jay Dasilva, Joe Rodon, Dylan Lawlor and Neco Williams. Captain Ethan Ampadu anchors the midfield alongside Josh Sheehan, while David Brooks operates in the attacking midfield role. Daniel James and Sorba Thomas provide width on the flanks, with towering striker Kieffer Moore leading the attack.
Craig Bellamy’s side boasts a blend of experience and youth, with established internationals such as Ampadu, James, Williams and Moore expected to provide leadership against a Ghanaian side packed with pace and athleticism.
Ghana, meanwhile, have opted for a 3-4-3 system. Lawrence Ati Zigi starts between the posts behind a three-man defence comprising Gideon Mensah, Jonathan Adjei and Jonathan Opoku. Mohammed Senaya and Ernest Owusu are deployed as wing-backs, while Thomas Partey and Abdul Fatawu provide support through the middle.
Black Stars captain Jordan Ayew leads the frontline and is flanked by Patrick Adu and Kamaldeen Sulemana, giving Ghana significant attacking threat on the counter. The inclusion of several younger players alongside experienced campaigners highlights the squad’s balance as the coaching staff continue to assess options.
The friendly presents an opportunity for both teams to fine-tune tactics, build chemistry and evaluate players in a competitive environment. Wales will look to make home advantage count, while Ghana will be eager to deliver a strong performance against European opposition and continue building momentum ahead of the world cup.
With quality on display across both line-ups, supporters can expect an entertaining encounter.
