England go into the match as favourites having won their Group L opener against Croatia. Manager Gareth Southgate is expected to make two changes from the starting lineup that beat Croatia, resting Kyle Walker and bringing in a fresher option at right back ahead of the more demanding fixtures that await in the knockout rounds if England progress. Harry Kane leads the line and is expected to start. England’s injury situation had limited options in some positions heading into the tournament, though Southgate said the squad depth remained more than adequate.
Ghana qualified as one of the strongest sides from the African confederation and go into the match with genuine belief after their dramatic 1-0 win over Panama. Their captain Thomas Partey sets the tempo from midfield and their forward line, built around Inaki Williams and his brother Nico Williams, causes problems for any defence when they play with pace and directness.
AT&T Stadium holds 80,000 for football and is expected to be close to capacity. The venue is one of the largest in the tournament and produces a significant atmosphere for evening kickoffs. Scotland’s result the previous evening had set the stage for more drama from the British Isles nations on Friday.
Fans in most countries can also access the match through FIFA Plus, the governing body’s free streaming platform, which offers selected non-premium rights markets live coverage of all 2026 World Cup matches. Check FIFA Plus availability in your specific country before kick-off.
