Ghana vs Panama
World Cup Match Preview & Prediction
Ghana and Panama meet in what could be a crucial Group L encounter, with both sides likely targeting this fixture as a key opportunity to pick up points. Ranked 73rd in the FIFA World Rankings, Ghana enter under pressure after a difficult run of results.
🇬🇭 Ghana
Ghana arrive searching for form after failing to win any of their last five matches. Their attacking output has been limited, scoring just three goals during that stretch, while defensive issues have also made life difficult against stronger opposition.
🇵🇦 Panama
Panama have shown greater consistency in recent months, recording victories over the Dominican Republic and South Africa while also earning draws against Bosnia & Herzegovina and South Africa. Despite a heavy defeat to Brazil, they arrive in better form than Ghana.
Group L also features England (#4) and Croatia (#11). With those two sides expected to battle for the top positions, Ghana and Panama know that anything less than a win here could significantly damage their hopes of reaching the knockout stage.

This should be competitive, but Panama look better positioned to take all three points.
