Goalkeeper Richard Ofori maintained his spot behind a back four of Nuhu and Nicholas Opoku as the centre pair with Odoi as the right-back and Gideon Mensah as the left-back.

Salis Samed and Baba Iddrisu are the double pivot in Hughton's regular 4-2-3-1 system with Inaki Williams and Jordan Ayew on the flanks.

Antoine Semenyo leads the line with Dede Ayew playing behind him.
