The draw for the CAF playoffs was completed on MON 16 SEP 2013, and the Black Stars of Ghana will likely be least pleased with the outcome, as they must face Egypt, the only team to complete the group phase with a perfect 18 points. Egypt coach Bob BRADLEY therefore has an opportunity for a rematch against the Ghana side that eliminated his United States team from the 2010 Men’s World Cup.

Tunisia advanced to the playoffs in roundabout fashion, having lost to Cape Verde Is on the last day of Group B only to have the match overturned due to an ineligible opposing player. Their opponents will be Cameroon.

Côte d’Ivoire and Senegal have been paired together in a west African derby. The remaining playoffs see Burkina Faso face Algeria and Ethiopia meet Nigeria.

• Playoff 1: Côte d’Ivoire-Senegal
• Playoff 2: Ethiopia-Nigeria
• Playoff 3: Tunisia-Cameroon
• Playoff 4: Ghana-Egypt
• Playoff 5: Burkina Faso-Algeria
