Ghana coach, Chris Hughton, is anticipating a tough game against Angola in their return fixture in the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations [AFCON] qualifiers.<\/p>\n

The Black Stars having recorded a 1-0 win against the Palancas Negras in the first leg at the Baba Yara Stadium on Thursday, the four-time African champions will be hosted at the Est\u00e1dio 11 de Novembro.<\/p>\n

Ahead of the game, the 64-year-old is anticipating a tough clash in Luanda.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think again, a difficult game. Angola showed in big parts of the game the quality that they have got, their way of play,\u201d Hughton said at his pre-match presser.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t think there will be too many surprises in the way they play because they are a very technical side and they like to play very expansive game. It\u2019s about making sure that we on the day defend well, play as a unit and take our opportunities, perhaps a little bit better than what we did in the first game,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

The game has been scheduled to kick off at 16:00GMT.<\/p>\n

The team will be without Andre Ayew, Alexander Djiku, Mohammed Salisu and Denis Odoi.<\/p>\n

The Black Stars sit top of Group E with seven points after three games played in the qualifying games.<\/p>\n
