Analysis
Colombia come into this match with strong momentum after topping their group and showing excellent defensive organisation. They have looked composed in possession, dangerous in wide areas, and difficult to open up.
Ghana have enough pace and physicality to make this competitive, but they may struggle to control long periods of the game. Against a Colombian side with better balance, more creativity and stronger tournament form, Ghana will likely need to be clinical with limited chances.
Knockout football can be tight, but Colombia look the more complete side and should have enough quality to edge this contest.
Prediction: Colombia 1-0 Ghana
Best Bet: Colombia to Win
