Get a 100% bonus up to £50 ahead of Colombia vs Ghana

This weekend, Colombia and Ghana meet in Kansas City in the early hours of Saturday to close out the Round of 32. Colombia topped Group K unbeaten while Ghana qualified as one of the tournament’s eight best third-placed teams, ending their group stage with a 2-1 defeat to Croatia.

With Colombia chasing a round of 16 spot and Ghana looking to cause the upset of the round, 247Bet are offering new customers the chance to score a 100% bonus up to £50. Sign up via our link, opt in, and deposit £20 or more and 247Bet will match it pound for pound up to £50.

Néstor Lorenzo’s Colombia have been the most consistent side in this tournament, and are yet to receive the attention they deserve. Unbeaten across Group K – 3-1 against Uzbekistan, 1-0 over Congo DR and a goalless draw with Portugal to confirm top spot – they have generated a formidable 59 shots and 19 on target across three group games. 

Daniel Muñoz has been the revelation of their campaign, scoring twice from right back, while Luis Díaz has driven forward from the left with one goal and one assist, and James Rodríguez has shown he still has quality, pulling the strings from the playmaker role.

Carlos Queiroz’s Ghana qualified with four points from three games, beating Panama with a 95th-minute Caleb Yirenkyi strike, holding England to a goalless draw, then losing 2-1 to Croatia in their final game. 

They have managed just 15 shots and four on target across the entire group stage, and with only two goals scored, their route to the round of 16 must run through defensive discipline rather than sustained attacking play.

A great boost ahead of a Round of 32 tie where Colombia’s superior firepower meets Ghana’s disciplined defensive block in front of a late-night Kansas City crowd.

Colombia’s clinical edge to prove decisive against Ghana’s limited attack

Colombia have won their last four matches against African opposition and arrive with statistics that suggest a team playing well within themselves. Muñoz’s goals from defence have been a bonus, but the primary threat comes from Díaz’s pace on the left, where he has found space behind opposition full-backs consistently across the group stage. Jaminton Campaz proved a devastating option from the bench, scoring late against Uzbekistan, and Lorenzo has the depth to adjust in the second half if needed.

Queiroz has shown he can frustrate anyone – holding England scoreless in a frustrating 90 minutes for the Three Lions – but with only four shots on target across three games, Ghana’s attack is simply not equipped to breach a Colombia side that has barely moved out of second gear.

• Colombia to win
• Luis Díaz to score anytime

Díaz has been Colombia’s most dangerous player throughout the tournament, combining pace, directness and an eye for goal across 270 minutes of action. Against a Ghana side set up to absorb and counter, he should find space to justify a place in the scorer markets.
