The qualifying matches for CAN 2027 resume this Thursday, November 12 for the 3rd day of the qualifiers and will continue until November 17 for the 4th day. In total, 48 matches are scheduled in the 12 qualifying groups.

“In total, 48 matches are scheduled across the continent, from Thursday 12 to Tuesday 17 November 2026, on the occasion of the 3rd and 4th days of the qualifiers. Several major African football nations will face decisive meetings,” we can read on the official website of the Confederation of African Football.

“This double confrontation could already weigh heavily in the race for qualifying places, with in particular highly anticipated posters between Ivory Coast and Gambia, Mali and Rwanda, or even Senegal and Sudan,” warns CAF.

“These six days will also offer the selections in difficulty the opportunity to relaunch their campaign, while the teams having achieved a flawless performance will seek to consolidate their lead before the last two days, scheduled for March 2027,” specifies the continental football body.
