Our analysis: Form of both teams
Chad has had a terrible qualifying campaign, as they’ve lost all six of their games in Group I. Their best recent result was a home draw against Kenya in an international friendly.
The Sao’s chances of qualifying are now over with just four fixtures remaining. However,Raoul Savoy’s men have pride to play for. Their next opponent is a nation that’s ranked 101 places above them in the latest rankings, which is concerning.
Ghana are on the brink of qualification, but aren’t there yet, as the Comoros are close behind them. Apart from being defeated twice across their last five outings by their biggest rivals, Nigeria, the Black Stars have been in great form.

They’ve only lost once in qualifying - an away tie to second-placed Comores - but with four consecutive wins, they’re strong favourites to secure the top spot in Group I.
Probable lineups for Chad vs Ghana
Chad expected lineup: Mbaynassem; Daba, Abderamane, Noubara, Tchaouna; Thiam, Issa; Allarabaye, Djoeta, Ali; Abakar
Ghana expected lineup: Asare; Djiku, Opoku, Salisu; Schindler, Francis, Partey, Mensah; Kudus, Ayew; Semenyo
Overwhelmingly one-sided match
Six consecutive defeats in their World Cup qualifiers don’t offer much hope for the hosts. They’ve only faced the Black Stars once before and lost 5-0. Savoy’s troops are currently on a 14-game winless streak (nine losses, five draws). This extended poor run is reflected across online betting sites, where Chad's odds are understandably lengthy for this qualifier.
Oddo Addo’s side should be confident of securing maximum points here, despite their recent struggles when playing away. However, given the hosts’ poor form, Ghana are likely to emerge victorious.
Ghana have won three of their last four matches, including the most recent 4-0 domination of Trinidad and Tobago. This suggests that they will win and get closer to securing the top spot and their place at the 2026 World Cup.

Keeping a clean sheet
Chad have been poor in the final third, especially in qualifying, where they have scored only one goal across six matches. The hosts managed a goal in an international friendly in June, but they’ve blanked in their last five qualifiers in a row.
They could face a major problem trying to break through the visiting defence. This is especially true since Ghana registered three clean sheets in their last four outings, including two in a row in their qualifiers.
Overall, Addo’s side have conceded five goals in six matches, but three of those came in their victory at the Central African Republic. The last time these two teams met, Ghana kept a clean sheet, making it likely they will shut out Chad this time as well.

High-scoring performance expected
Only Algeria (16) have outscored Ghana’s 15 strikes during this qualifying campaign, which shows the attacking threat they pose. They have an average of 2.5 goals per game. However, since they’ve already scored five against the hosts in the group, they will be confident they can again.
Chad are among the four worst defences in the CAF section of World Cup qualifiers. Seychelles (30), Djibouti (20), and Congo (19) are the only nations to concede more than their 15, an average of 2.5 per match.
The hosts have conceded at least three goals in 50% of their qualifiers, while the visitors have netted at least three times in half of their matches. Therefore, the Black Stars are likely to score plenty of goals.
