In December's draw for the global showpiece, Ghana – quarter-finalists in 2010 - were put into a particularly tough group alongside Germany, Portugal and the United States.
While Ghana are sure to have the World Cup in their minds, Montenegro will use this week's fixture as a chance to make progress ahead of the UEFA Euro 2016 qualifiers, which start in September.
Coach Branko Brnovic has labelled Ghana as Africa's leading team and feels Wednesday's match will be of great benefit to his side.
"Ghana is the best team in Africa and they will give us that competitive edge we require in friendly games," said Brnovic.
"Their performance in the World Cup in recent times tells us how good they are as a team.
"They are also preparing towards the World Cup and won't come here for fun so we look forward to that game against a very tough opponent."
Montenegro go into the match in unimpressive form having won only one of their last seven matches – a 4-1 friendly triumph over Luxembourg in November.
Stephen Adams has been selected in Dauda's place and the Adauna Stars man is the only Ghana-based player to be named in the squad, while centre-back duo Jonathan Mensah and John Boye return following injuries.
