Guinea coach Michel Dussuyer knows his side can be clobbered by the Black Stars in Tamale in the return leg of the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier.

The Frenchman hatched a strategy which worked to perfection in the second half and ensured they clawed back to draw 1-1 in Casablanca last Saturday in the corresponding fixture.

Ghana players are hoping to revive their game plan and record a first home win after a bore 1-1 draw with Uganda in Kumasi last month.

The match will be played at the Tamale Sports Stadium, a venue host for the 2008 Africa Cup of Nations finals, and not the traditional Baba Yara Stadium in Kumasi.

“We know that Ghana is a great team; one of the most important in Africa and one of the best and to play away in Tamale with Ghanaian audience, we know it will be difficult for us,” Dussuyer said after Tuesday’s training session.

“We know it is a Group which the positions are very close so Ghana need a victory and we are well aware of that and we will do our best to know that.”

Guinea just one point behind Group E leaders Ghana who have five points after three rounds of matches.
