Zimbabwe vs Ghana Predictions


Zimbabwe are in dire form with one win in their last 15 matches. Ghana absolutely have to win to keep close to South Africa. I am tipping an away victory.

  • Zimbabwe have lost 4 of their last 5 matches (all competitions).
  • Zimbabwe have failed to score in 5 of their last 8 matches (all competitions).
  • Ghana have won 2 of their last 3 matches (World Cup qualifiers).
  • Ghana have kept 2 clean sheets in their last 4 matches (all competitions).

Head to Head


These sides sit a 1-1 across two previous meetings with no matches drawn.

They faced each on Friday as Ghana won 3-1 at home.

Zimbabwe Form


Zimbabwe have won just one of their last 15 matches in all competitions.

They began their 2022 Qatar World Cup qualifiers with a 0-0 home draw against South Africa. A 94th minute goal then saw them lost 1-0 in Ethiopia as they fielded an under-strength XI.

Their last match saw a 3-1 defeat in Ghana. Zimbabwean had equalised through a 49th minute penalty from Knowledge Musona.

Zimbabwe Injuries & Team News


Zimbabwe are without first choice left back Divine Lunga due to injury.

Defender Brendan Galloway and midfielder Marvelous Nakamba are back after missing the first two qualifiers. Forward Khama Billiat returns from suspension and will start.

Ghana Form


Ghana sit a point behind South Africa in the standings for World Cup qualification. After a 0-0 home draw against Ivory Coast in a friendly, they began qualifiers for Qatar 2022 with a 1-0 home win against Ethiopia.

A 1-0 defeat in South Africa followed after a late goal. They were missing several of their best players and it showed.

Ghana’s last match saw a 3-1 home win against Zimbabwe. Mohammed Kudus opened the scoring before Thomas Partey and Andre Ayew netted after the side had conceded an equaliser.

Ghana Squad & Team News


Ghana are much stronger than in their first two qualifiers. Southampton defender Mohammed Salisu has turned down a call-up though.

Arsenal midfielder Thomas Partey and Ajax forward Mohammed Kudus are both back and scored in the last match. Jojo Wollacott should start in goal with Richard Ofori out injured.
