Ghana head coach, Kwesi Appiah, has named Afriyie Acquah in the team to face Tunisia in the AFCON Round of 16 clash on Monday evening.
The Empoli midfielder came off the bench to put in a creditable performance in Ghana’s 2-0 win against Guinea Bissau in Suez.
Ghana will line up in a 4-2-3-1 formation with Acquah expected to form a double pivot midfield with Mubarak Wakaso and Thomas Partey just in front of them.
Captain Andre Ayew is expected to take the place of Kwabena Owusu on the left flank.
Kasim Nuhu, who is returning from suspension, will start at center back alongside John Boye.
