We have Colombia vs. Ghana predictions for the Round of 32 knockout match on Saturday, July 4 at 11:30am at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City.

South American and African teams have had a good World Cup, and although the odds suggest Colombia will advance, we’re not ruling out Ghana causing an upset.

Ghana & Draw

Double Result

$2.80

We don’t think there is much between Colombia and Ghana, so we’re backing the double result of Ghana and a draw after 90 minutes.

Ghana started their World Cup campaign with a 1-0 win over Panama before drawing 0-0 with England, which is arguably their best result. They lost 2-1 to Croatia, but there wasn’t much in that game, and it won’t affect their confidence.

Colombia defeated Uzbekistan and DR Congo before drawing against Portugal. However, we think Portugal are slightly overrated, so that draw might look better than it was. It doesn’t justify Colombia being $1.46 favourites, especially in a match that should be close throughout.

We like the $8.25 odds for Ghana to win in normal time, but the $2.80 for Ghana or a draw gives punters a fair amount of insurance.

Ghana and Draw, Antoine Semenyo Goal or Assist, Both Teams to Score, Over 2.5 Goals

Ghana is patiently waiting for Antoine Semenyo to make an impact at the World Cup, and we’re keeping the faith. He’s a quality player, and although he has yet to score or assist in a goal, the $4 odds are too good to pass up.

We expect both teams to score in what should be an open finals game. Teams often play more defensively in the knockout stages, but Ghana and Colombia like to throw caution to the wind, so we expect a 2-1 or 2-2 scoreline.

It’s also why we’re backing over 2.5 goals, which pays a healthy $2.15. It’s a good price, and this game could surprise people in how many goals they score.

Antoine Semenyo

First Goal Scorer

$10.00

The Manchester City player had a good season in the EPL, and although that hasn’t translated to goals for Ghana, it’s only a matter of time.

The England-born player needs better service from his midfielders, but if they have a good game, he should get an early chance at goal.

The $10 odds for Semenyo to score first are generous, and this could be his breakout World Cup performance.
