Watch England vs Ghana live streams as Thomas Tuchel's men look to secure their place in the next round at the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The Black Stars, though, also won their opening fixture and fancy an upset.

Here's how to watch England vs Ghana free live streams from anywhere with a VPN.

England vs Ghana: World Cup Live Streams

Tuchel's side were something of an unknown entity going into this World Cup. Sure, we all know about the players selected, but how would they perform at a major tournament within Tuchel's tactical setup? Any fears were brushed aside with a convincing 4-2 win over Croatia, with Harry Kane and Jude Bellingham stealing the headlines, and Marcus Rashford adding to his impressive goal tally at international level off the bench. Clearly, Tuchel saw something he wanted to tweak, though, as he's made two changes to the starting XI for this game.

Next up is a clash with Ghana, who only managed to beat Panama in the dying moments of their Group L opener. On that basis, England should have no problems securing the three points and their place in the next round, but this World Cup has already thrown up some unpredictable results. Could this be another? The Black Stars boast Man City forward Antoine Semenyo's creative gifts and will be desperate for their own victory that would secure a first knockout spot since reaching the 2010 quarter-finals.

Here's how to watch England vs Ghana in the FIFA World Cup online and on TV — starting with free streaming options.

England vs Ghana team news

Despite a convincing win over Croatia in their opening game of the tournament, Thomas Tuchel has decided to tinker with his starting line-up for the clash against Ghana. One change may well be enforced, with John Stones dropping out, presumably as he is lacking match sharpness after a lack of football with Man City this season. He will be replaced by his club teammate, Marc Guehi.

Meanwhile, in something of a surprise move, Djed Spence has been given the nod at left-back ahead of Nico O’Reilly. While Spence impressed in his substitute appearance against Croatia, O’Reilly was heavily fancied to start once more for the Three Lions.

Here is the England starting XI vs Ghana:

  • Jordan Pickford (GK)
  • Reece James
  • Ezri Konsa
  • Marc Guehi
  • Djed Spence
  • Declan Rice
  • Elliot Anderson
  • Jude Bellingham
  • Noni Madueke
  • Anthony Gordon
  • Harry Kane

The major talking point for Ghana and their team selection is not actually anything to do with football. Thomas Partey was denied access to Canada for their opening game against Panama for legal reasons, but he’s been allowed to play against England and goes straight into the midfield for the African side.

Here is the Ghana starting XI vs England:

  • Benjamin Asare (GK)
  • Marvin Senaya
  • Jonas Adjetey
  • Jerome Opoku
  • Gideon Mensah
  • Caleb Yirenkyi
  • Thomas Partey
  • Inaki Williams
  • Kwasi Sibo
  • Antoine Semenyo
  • Jordan Ayew
