Portugal v Ghana prediction and team news: Who will win Group H game?
Our predictions for Portugal v Ghana in World Cup 2022 Group H, including who we think will win and predicted line-ups.
Portugal will be hoping for a repeat of their only previous encounter with Ghana when kicking off their Group H campaign.
Cristiano Ronaldo scored the decisive goal when the two teams met in a group stage dead-rubber at Brazil 2014, although it was one of just three wins the Euro 2016 champions have managed in their last 14 World Cup matches.
Ronaldo was already set to be the centre of attention, but following his unceremonious departure from Manchester United to become a free agent this week, the number of lenses trained on his face will multiply exponentially throughout this tournament.

Portugal have failed to pick up the full three points in their last three opening games of a World Cup, but Ghana have an equally poor record in their openers and the absence of first-choice goalkeeper Jojo Wollacott due to injury is a blow.

Portugal v Ghana prediction
Group H looks competitive with South Korea and Uruguay also involved so the pressure is on Portugal to overcome their recent poor World Cup record and begin their campaign with a victory.
The attacking quality provided by Cristiano Ronaldo, Joao Felix and Bruno Fernandes should ensure they bag all three points.
Ghana haven't been in the greatest form in 2022 and losing their number one shot-stopper on the eve of the tournament is far from ideal.
Our prediction: Portugal 3-1 Ghana (14/1 at bet365)
