Champions Senegal have been handed an interesting group after they were drawn in Group L with Benin, Mozambique and Rwanda in the qualifiers for the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations in Ivory Coast.
2021 finalist and seven times champions Egypt were potted in Group D with Guinea, Malawi and Ethiopia while five times champions Cameroon were handed Kenya, Namibia and Burundi in Group C.
Ghana’s rivals Nigeria were drawn in Group A alongside Sierra Leone, Guinea Bissau the winner of the game between Sao Tome and Maritius.
The Black Stars of Ghana were drawn in Group E alongside Madagascar, Angola and the Central African Republic.
The four times Africa champions finished top of Group C in the last qualifiers after accumulating 12 points and were joined by Sudan for AFCON 2021.
Ghana will be hoping to make amends after a disastrous Nations Cup in Cameroon this year, but will have to finish top of runners up in Group E.
The Black Stars are chasing a fifth elusive AFCON title, having reached the finals three times since 1982, losing to Ivory Coast twice in 1992 and 2015 and in 2010 to Egypt.
