The Black Stars face Colombia at the Kansas City Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri, with kick-off set for 1:30 a.m. Ghana Time on July 4. The winner of the last-16 tie will go on to face Switzerland.

In a video shared by Tactical Tax's owner, the dog is presented with two balls — one decorated with the Ghana flag and the other bearing Colombia's colours. The format is a best-of-three contest, and Tactical Tax initially nudged towards the Colombian ball on his first pick.

Tactical Tax's World Cup predictions

The dog has attracted considerable attention during the tournament, particularly in the Round of 32 stage. Tactical Tax has already built a track record that is hard to ignore, having correctly called high-profile results, including Portugal against Croatia and Belgium against Senegal.

Those successful forecasts have helped turn the animal into one of the more unusual talking points of this year's competition.

The TikTok video of Tactical Tax's prediction on Ghana vs Colombia is below.

For Ghana supporters, the prediction will provide an extra boost of confidence heading into a tie that carries enormous significance. A victory against Colombia would not only extend the Black Stars' World Cup journey but set up a meeting with Switzerland in the Round of 16.

Tactical Tax's prediction follows a similar optimistic boost from man of God, Telvin Adjei Sowah, who declined to declare a winner outright but hinted at a favourable outcome for the Ghana Black Stars.
