Former Ghana striker George Owu has predicted a win for the Black Stars when they face Egypt in the 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifier in Alexandria on Sunday afternoon.
The Black Stars are out for their first win in five matches and a loss will dissipate their faint hopes of qualifying for Russia 2018 after they opened their campaign with a home draw with Uganda.
The Egyptians are out for revenge after the Stars battered them 6-1 at the Baba Yara Stadium in Kumasi during the 2014 FIFA World Cup qualifiers three years ago.
Owu, who has experience from playing in Egypt after featuring for giants El-Masry, wants the Black Stars to draw inspiration from Ghana's famous win over South Africa at the FNB Stadium in the 2006 World Cup qualifiers.
"In as much as we won’t have it easy I don’t think South Africa will also have it easy, Ghana is not any team that you can easily beat just because you are playing at home,” he told Ghana Sports Online.
"The only thing in the minds of the Egyptians is to revenge the defeat and that could work against them.
"I was expecting them to approach the game normal but it seems they are so eager and this is football.
"South Africa did the same thing in 2005. They were so eager to beat us just because we had defeated them 3-0 in Kumasi, we went in to play our normal game and at the end we defeated them at their own backyard.
"I really see the Black Stars picking up a victory because they have remained calm and not under any pressure."
