Ghana's womens U-20 side, the Black Princesses are hopeful of advancing to the next stage of the qualifying series for the 2011 All Africa Games when they host Liberia in the return leg this weekend.

The Black Princesses romped to a 4-0 first leg victory in Monrovia to give them a winning start in the preliminary round.

Kuuku Dadzie, coach of the side expects his side not to entertain any form of complacency when they welcome the Liberian team to the El-Wak Stadium on Sunday.

"We are very confident but we are not taking anything for granted," Dadzie said ahead of the match.

"We've played a couple of friendly matches and I think the girls are ready for the assignment [game with Liberia]."

Goals from captain Mercy Myles, Rosemary Ampem, Grace Asare and Agnes Quaye handed Ghana an impressive victory in the first leg.

The winner over two-legs will face Nigeria in the final qualifier in April to determine which side secures one of the qualifying places at the Games in Mozambique later in September.

Ghana won bronze at the 2007 All Africa Games in Algeria.
