The Black Stars will take on Angola in the opener of the doubleheader with kickoff set for 3pm Ghanaian time. The game will be televised live on Multi TV in Ghana while Kwese ESPN will broadcast the match live across Africa.
The Black Stars will then take on Kenya in their following match on Tuesday, September 23. Kickoff for that fixture is scheduled for 8pm Ghanaian time.

"The Black Stars have done extremely well in their previous two games against Algeria and Zambia and will be looking for a better performance against the Angolans this time around," said head coach Stephen Appiah. "I am confident that the team will give it their best shot in the upcoming games and I am confident that we will get positive results."
