The ninth matchday of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers continues this Friday, October 10, for the third consecutive day.

Two teams could join the four already qualified sides (Morocco, Tunisia, Egypt, and Algeria) today: Senegal and Ivory Coast.

The Lions, who sit two points ahead of DR Congo, need a win in Juba against South Sudan and must hope the Leopards lose in Togo to clinch qualification before the final matchday.

Meanwhile, Ivory Coast, the group leader with a one-point edge over Gabon, can punch their ticket with a win over Seychelles combined with a Panthers defeat in Gambia.

Don't miss the explosive clashes in Group C, where four teams—Benin, South Africa, Nigeria, and Rwanda—are still in the hunt for qualification.
