Ghana v Mauritius: Finalists begin quest for 2017 redemption

Mauritius will look to begin life after Didier Six, when they travel to Accra for an Africa Cup of Nations qualifier.

Ghana and Mauritius both head into their Group H qualifier on the back of a much-needed win last time out.

The victory for Avram Grant's men was their first since losing the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations final on penalties to Ivory Coast, and they can begin their path towards going one better at Gabon 2017 with a big win over the island nation.

"Normally, qualifiers can be tricky especially, because we are in a league format," Badu told Cafonline.com.

"For us, we have decided not to depend on any ifs or buts. We want to take our destiny into our own hands and qualify as quickly as possible.

"We will rather qualify well in time than depend on calculations or arithmetic later on.

"This means we must start getting every point out of every match and off each team we approach and that starts with Mauritius."

Ghana's preparation for the fixture has been disturbed by the natural disaster in their homeland, which has been deadly.
