Uruguay vs Ghana 2010 World Cup Odds & World Cup Predictions: The 2010 FIFA World Cup quarterfinals will continue Friday at Soccer City Stadium, Johannesburg with the days final match between Ghana and Uruguay. The Black Knights of Ghana will have a distinct home advantage as the only remaining team still alive from the African continent.
Should Ghana beat Uruguay, they will become the first African side to reach the World Cup semifinals, but victory will be hard to come by against a solid Uruguay side.
Ghana's dreams of becoming the first African side to reach a World Cup semifinal will depend on their ability to keep at bay the formidable attacking duo of Diego Forlan and Luis Suarez which has propelled Uruguay into the quarterfinals. The pair have scored five goals between them as Uruguay have enjoyed their most successful World Cup campaign in 40 years, topping their group and then beating South Korea in the second round.
Isacc Vorsah makes a timely return from injury to centre back in place of Mensah, and will be key to Ghana's plans to stifle the double threat posed by Forlan and Suarez.
Ayew's place is likely to be taken by Sulley Muntari, only used as a substitute so far but still with the potential to prove a decisive influence for Ghana.
Uruguay coach Oscar Tabarez named his team on Wednesday, with Mauricio Victorino in for the injured Diego Godin in defence and Alvaro Fernandez chosen ahead of Alvaro Pereira in midfield.
