New Black Stars captain Andre Ayew is confident Ghana will end their 37-year Afcon drought in Egypt, however, he hopes luck will be on their side at the tournament.
Ghana last won the continental piece in 1982 and will be among 24 teams vying for gold at the upcoming championship in Egypt which starts on June 21.
“This tournament is going to be a very difficult one for all the teams," Ayew told Africa Feeds.
“We are prepared. We know what we have to do because we have experienced players in the team, so I am confident.
“I just hope that the Gods of football will be with us because if you want to win there should be a great fighting spirit, discipline, focus and above all luck on our side to ensure we sail through."
Ghana are currently camping in the United Arab Emirates, and have been drawn in Group F alongside defending champions Cameroon, Benin and Guinea-Bissau.
