We said: Ghana 2-0 Niger

While it has been a forgettable qualifying journey for Ghana, they will look to close out the campaign on a strong note and avoid failing to win any of their six matches in Group F. The stakes are high for Niger and while we expect them to go all out at the Accra Sports Stadium, we predict that the Black Stars will come away with all three points in front of the home supporters.
