Former Black Stars player Tony Baffoe says Ghana would not deserve a place at the next World Cup if they cannot beat Zambia in September.
The Chipolopolo are chasing a first World Cup berth while Ghana eye a third straight appearance � but they both to fight for one spot into the final round of qualifiers.
Zambia are second in the qualifying group behind Ghana, after the West Africans beat Sudan and Lesotho last month.
�I already told [Zambia FA boss] Kalusha Bwalya that the Zambians can talk and talk,� Baffoe, a Caf and Fifa administrator, said.
He went on: �There�s no way they can come to Kumasi and leave with the three points. If we don�t beat Zambia in Ghana, then we don�t deserve to be in the World Cup.�
Ghana has lost just two out of 12 games in all competitions in 2013, with the only losses coming against Burkina Faso and Mali in the African Cup.
Tony Baffoe has a simple reason why the Stars must win in Kumasi.
�I have huge confidence in the team and the squad that we have to teach [Zambia] lesson. They talk too much.�
You can be certain that Zambia will be talking similarly tough.
