The Ghana Football Association has confirmed the Black Stars will play South American World Cup finalists Paraguay in Rustenburg, South Africa on 03 March.
The international friendly will set Ghana's preparations for the World Cup finals in motion.
Head coach Milovan Rajevac is expected to name some new faces that missed the Africa Cup of Nations, notably Sulley Muntari who was dropped for indiscipline.
Ghana want to trim the rough edges ahead of their Group D meetings with Serbia, Germany and Australia.
The Albirrojas are expected to field a strong side including Manchester City striker Roque Santa Cruz.
Nelson Haedo Valdez who shared 11 goals with Salvador Canabas(out of intensive care after being shot in the head) will also be available for the friendly.
Paraguay are in Group F together with Italy, New Zealand and Slovakia.
