Uruguay v Ghana Preview

Uruguay boss Oscar Tabarez looks set to shake up his starting XI for this second quarter final match against Milovan Rajevac’s Ghana.

Definitely sidelined for Uruguay is defender Diego Godin, who picked up a thigh injury in the victory over South Korea. Mauricio Victorino, who replaced Godin in the previous match, comes in again.

Also out is midfielder Alvaro Pereira who will be replaced by Alvaro Fernandez.

The front three of Luis Suarez, Edinson Cavani and Diego Forlan will remain intact.

Ghana boss Rajevac will be pleased that striker Asamoah Gyan is fit enough to start, despite an ankle knock in training.

Doubtful, however, is midfielder Kevin Prince-Boateng, who has a thigh problem.

With midfielder Dede Ayew suspended, Inter midfielder Sulley Muntari could start his first match of the finals, after reports of clashes with the coach.

KICK-OFF: FRIDAY JULY 3rd 19:30 GMT
