With only a few matches left in the qualifiers, 19 teams have secured their places at the highly anticipated TotalEnergies CAF Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) 2025, set to be held in Morocco.
Uganda remains in the East African region to secure a slot at the Morocco finals.
However, neighbors Tanzania have chance for a slot. Guinea and Tanzania are in the same group and only one between the two will qualify.
Meanwhile, Botswana and Mozambique only need to draw or win their last matches to qualify.
Guinea Bissau will qualify ahead of Mozambique if they beat Mozambique in the last group encounter.
Sudan and Niger both stands a chance as Angola is already qualified while Ghana has been eliminated.
The qualification began with the preliminary round which ran from 20 to 26 March 2024.
They will conclude with the group stage, which have been played throughout September, October and November, all in 2024.
A total of 24 teams will qualify to play in the final tournament, including automatically-qualified hosts Morocco.
