The CONCACAF Gold Cup is a week away, and the United States men’s national team is playing one warm-up game against some tricky opposition. They’ll take on Ghana on Saturday afternoon in Connecticut.

Most of the USMNT’s top stars have been left off the roster for the World Cup group stage. Tim Howard, Michael Bradley, Clint Dempsey and Christian Pulisic are among the players absent, though they can be recalled for the knockout stage. You can see the USMNT’s entire 23- man Gold Cup roster here.

American fans will be hoping to get their first look at Dom Dwyer and Kenny Saief in USMNT shirts after both had their one-time switches to the United States approved by FIFA. They’re joined by two other uncapped players, Kelyn Rowe and Cristian Roldan.

Ghana is coming off a 1-0 loss to Mexico in Houston, in which they played a mix of veteran players and fresh faces. Expect the Black Stars to play another blend of regular starters and fringe players on Saturday.
