\nGhana will play Portugal this afternoon as the Black Stars open their campaign in the ongoing FIFA World Cup in Qater.<\/p>\n
This Group H encounter will be played at Stadium 974 Rass Abou Aboud, with kick-off time set for 16:00 GMT in the Asian country.<\/p>\n
The Black Stars are in high spirits going into this game after their impressive 2-0 victory over Switzerland in their last friendly before the tournament.<\/p>\n
Coach Otto Addo said he had a selection headache ahead of the game with competition for a starting lineup being keenly contested among the 26-players selected to represent the nation.<\/p>\n

Nonetheless, the former Ghana international is expected to name a strong lineup to face the Portuguese this afternoon as the Black Stars look to start their campaign with a win.<\/p>\n
That is what is doing the talking in the camp of Team Ghana, with a very positive karma blowing among the contingent in Qater.<\/p>\n
Many Ghanaians will be expecting them to rise to the challenge against a Portugal side that is the bookmakers favourites to win the encounter.<\/p>\n
This World Cup has so far produced some stunning results in favour of the underdog, and, another cannot be ruled out with the Black Stars looking poised for the action.<\/p>\n
In the same group, South Korea and Uruguay will square off to complete the action before all four teams go again next week.<\/p>\n
