The ceremony, which will take place at the Parc Des Exposition in Abidjan, the Ivorian capital, with the creme-de-la-creme of African football expected to be in attendance, will see the 24 qualified teams drawn into six groups of four teams each, with the two top –placed teams in each group, alongside the best four third –placed teams, progressing to the Round of 16.

The Super Eagles are in Pot 2 and could be drawn in the same group with Morocco, Senegal, or Egypt.

While speaking on cafonline ahead of today’s draw ceremony, vice-president of the Local Organising Committee, Yacine Idriss Diallo, said the draw was an exciting platform for Cote d’Ivoire to demonstrate its state of readiness and excitement of hosting Africa next year.

“You can feel the excitement in the air – not just here in Abidjan but across the country. Everywhere you go, people are talking about Thursday evening’s Draw and who they want to see playing against each other. Thanks to our continued efforts, working with CAF and local government, the country is fully behind this tournament and starting with the Draw on Thursday, Cote d’Ivoire will demonstrate to Africa and the rest of the world that it is indeed ready to host a successful AFCON”, said Diallo.
