The CONCACAF Gold Cup winners are undefeated in their previous five games, although they head here following a (3-3) share of the spoils against Uzbekistan in a friendly match. The six-goal thriller was their back-to-back stalemate. Mexico's last three friendly games have ended in over three goals, and it’ll be hard for them to shut out the Black Stars of Ghana.
Jimenez is expected to start up front for the Tricolor, while celebrity goalkeeper Ochoa will be in goal.

The Black Stars qualified for the AFCON Tournament with twelve points from a possible eighteen. They went unbeaten throughout the campaign, scoring eight while conceding three times. Ghana have also won three and drawn once over their previous four International fixtures, although two of these encounters were against lowly-rated teams. Chris Hughton is unbeaten since his arrival, winning three and sharing the spoils twice.
The Black Stars fans are happy with the return of Thomas Partey to the squad, while Kudus and Williams will feature upfront for the West African side.
Expert Betting Tips
Mexico won their last three games against Ghana, with two fixtures were played in the United States. Mexico have drawn their last three friendly matches, and the last time they played an African side was in June against Cameroon. Ghana will be hoping to break the jinx against the Americans, but we think with the firepower in both teams, a total of over 2.5 goals will surface here for 2.01.
We’d rather focus on goals here as both sides are capable of walking off with the maximum points; bet on BTTS for 1.92.
Both sides might settle for a halftime draw here for 2.20.
Good luck!
