The Manchester United center back will be joined by Aleksander Lukovic, wild wingback Kolarov, and capable set up man Lazovic.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the youth and talent, the team lacks the physicality and experience to be truly formidable and will need Vedic to play above and beyond to go far, let alone defeat Ghana.<\/p>\n<p>Many remember Ghana\u2019s strong showing in 2006 and recognize their ability to surprise and upset. This is their second appearance and they are respected as a true giant. The team has undergone changes since 2006, and with added experience the expectations are high. They went unbeaten through four opening matches of the final round and didn\u2019t lose until qualifying.<\/p>\n<p>The side was dealt a major blow when it was revealed that Chelsea midfielder, Michael Essien, would not make full recovery in time for the finals, from a knee injury suffered in mid-December. In his absence the team will rally around skipper Stephen Appiah and youngster Kwadwo Asamoah.<\/p>\n<p>The Achilles for the team is its lack of discipline and a striker who can score big. Coach Milovan Rajevac recognizes the lack of scorers on the team, and will look to use his midfield for an advantage.<\/p>\n<p>With both teams looking to make it out of this difficult group, they will theoretically both be playing for a win, so despite how evenly matched they are, it is difficult to see either being satisfied with a draw.<\/p>\n<p>While the climate and support in South Africa may be advantageous to Ghana, the Serbs seem to have the slight edge offensively.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Serbia vs. Ghana Round 1 Free Pick: <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I expect Serbia to win this one 2-1.<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/wgmg.co.cr\/aspx\/affiliateStoreClick.aspx?ID_SC=1445&amp;ID_I=613\">We proudly advertise our partner JUSTbet.com.
