Holders, Ivory Coast and Equatorial Guinea have qualified for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations without kicking a ball, as the penultimate round of qualifying fixtures began on Wednesday. The Ivorians are certain of finishing in the top two places in Group G, following Sierra Leone's 1-1 draw with Chad. The Elephants now have nine points from four games, while Zambia are second on seven from four. Sierra Leone have five points with one match to play and Chad are eliminated.
Equatorial Guinea sit on seven points from their four matches, while Liberia have four points from five games and Togo have two. Even if Liberia finish with same points tally as Equatorial Guinea, who host group leaders Algeria on Thursday, they cannot overhaul them in the standings because of the head-to-head record between the two.
