Before evaluating player picks, confirm the player is starting or expected to start. Always wait for the final official lineup.

Elliot Anderson
Anderson's real trademark is the recovery: he reads the play, anticipates and stretches out a leg at the right time. With that reading, putting together at least one tackle is almost a guarantee.
Elliot Anderson plays with the engine always running and throws himself at the carrier the moment England lose the ball. In that eagerness to win it back, he often reaches his opponent with a foul.
When he's the one building play, Anderson lowers his centre of gravity and tries to dribble out of pressure. Ghana's midfielders, trying to win the ball, end up bringing him down.

Harry Kane
Harry Kane doesn't just play as a target man: he drops to collect the ball and then shoots from different spots, even from distance. For a marksman like him, passing a couple of attempts is a familiar script.
Few in the world strike the ball as cleanly as Kane, able to find the corner both set and on the move. Against Ghana, an effort of his ending up on target is a more than concrete possibility.
England's all-time top scorer, Kane has the gift of turning up where goals are born. If the team feeds him at the right moments, seeing him on the scoresheet is an ever-present scenario.

Nico O'Reilly
Nico O'Reilly covers the left flank with youthful bite and doesn't shy away from duels out wide. Against the pace of Ghana's attackers, at least one challenge from him is likely.

Antoine Semenyo
Antoine Semenyo is all surging runs and power, and when he cuts in from the right he goes for the shot straight away. Even in a tough away game, he's likely to get off at least one effort at goal.

England vs Ghana, the Group L summit In Group L at the 2026 World Cup, two sides that started on maximum points meet, and it already matters for top spot. England opened with a spectacular 4-2 over Croatia: a Harry Kane brace, which equalled Gary Lineker's England World Cup record of 10 goals, plus strikes from Bellingham and Rashford. Ghana, by contrast, edged Panama 1-0 with a Caleb Yirenkyi finish deep in stoppage time, at the end of a tense, fiery game. Two different routes to three points: the Three Lions in a hail of goals, the Black Stars through cutting edge and suffering. The tip under review is an England win, favoured on quality and squad depth. English power against Ghanaian solidity England showed a top-class attacking phase, with Kane in record-breaking form and a build-up able to strike from several positions; the note not to overlook, though, is the defence, which conceded twice against Croatia along with a few lapses. Ghana won while creating little, living on compactness and one episode settled late: an awkward, physical side, but with clear attacking limits against organised opponents. Both arrive off a win and in high spirits; the final lineups are to be confirmed close to kick-off. A seldom-played meeting England and Ghana have met very rarely, and in now-dated friendly contexts: there is no useful history to lean on. The read leans on the present, with the Three Lions clearly better equipped in individual quality and depth. The verdict: England start favoured An England win is the most likely outcome, backed by an attack in fine form and a squad simply deeper than Ghana's. I'd put it around 60%. It is no stroll, though: Ghana have just shown they can suffer and take the result even playing below tempo, and the English defence showed cracks the Black Stars will try to exploit in transition. The most plausible scenario sees England make the play and break through thanks to their attacking superiority, with the main risk a tight game decided by a single episode, an area where Ghana can be dangerous. The confidence is fair.
