The Black Satellites of Ghana will face Nigerien giants Sahel FC on Saturday in a friendly encounter as part of their preparations for the impending Under 20 AFCON.

The Satellites are in Niamey preparing for the tournament which begins on February 2 and the game with Sahel FC will be their second trial game having lost 2-0 to the Niger Under 20 in mid week.

Coach Jimmy Cobblah will have the chance to assess the attacking strength of his team having complained about their profligacy in the game against Niger.

The Satellites will be without Eupen goalkeeper Manaf Nurudeen who will arrive in camp on Saturday evening as well as skipper Ishahaku Konda who will land on Sunday.
