Competition Guide

Road to AFCON 2027

The AFCON 2027 qualifying main phase has 48 national teams in 12 groups of four. Each team plays home and away across six matchdays. In groups without a co-host, the top two qualify. Kenya (Group D), Uganda (Group H) and Tanzania (Group L) are already qualified as hosts, so the highest-placed eligible non-host team from each of those groups joins its host at the finals.

How qualification progresses

Qualification path

The qualifying groups decide the route to AFCON 2027; they do not form a final-tournament knockout bracket.

AFCON 2027 Final Tournament

The AFCON 2027 final tournament runs from 19 June to 17 July in Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda. Its 24 national teams are split into six groups of four; the top two in every group plus the four best third-placed teams progress to a 16-team knockout stage.

How the standings work

A win is worth 3 points and a draw 1 point. Groups remain separate in the live provider data; BetLogic does not invent an overall ranking. In qualifying groups with Kenya, Uganda or Tanzania, the co-host is already qualified and the highest-placed eligible non-host team takes the additional place.
