Ghana lock horns with Comoros in the final round of group-stage matches in Group C of the Africa Cup of Nations on Tuesday.

The Black Stars have endured a slow start to the tournament and will be desperate to claim their first win and keep their qualification chances alive.

Ghana were denied their first win at the Africa Cup of Nations as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Gabon last Friday.

This followed a 1-0 defeat against a rampant Moroccan side in their Group C curtain-raiser.

Ghana have now failed to win any of their last three games, losing twice and claiming one draw.

Meanwhile, Comoros were left empty handed for the second game running as they were beaten 2-0 by Morocco last time out.

The newcomers have now lost their opening two games of the tournament and find themselves rooted to the bottom of the group.

While they will be looking to bow out on a high, next up is an opposing side who they are yet to defeat in their history.


Ghana vs Comoros Head-To-Head

This will be the third meeting between the two nations. Ghana have picked up one win from their previous two encounters, while the spoils have been shared once.
