Former Black Stars midfielder Laryea Kingston says Nigeria are favourites but expects Ghana to sail through in this month’s 2022 FIFA World Cup play-offs tie.
The 41-year-old predicts Ghana, playing under new coach Otto Addo, might struggle to outclass the Super Eagles.
Kingston said on TV3’s Final Push: “Ghana-Nigeria games are very tough. Looking at the squad, Ghana will struggle especially because of the total change of the technical team.
“Such games, form doesn’t matter. It will be tough but I strongly believe we will beat Nigeria.”
The first leg will be played at the Baba Yara Stadium in Kumasi and the reverse fixture four days later in Abuja.
Ghana will be handled by ex-international Otto Addo who is a youth coach at German side Borussia Dortmund.
