According to the draw rule, there will be nine groups of six teams with all the group winners qualifying for the World Cup to be jointly hosted by, the United States of America, Mexico and Canada.

The four best two will compete in a mini-tournament and the winner will make an intercontinental play-off.

The draw mechanics means Ghana could potentially be placed in the same group as any of the teams in Pot 1: Nigeria, Morocco, Senegal, Algeria, Tunisia, Cameroon, Mali, Egypt, and Ivory Coast.

The Black Stars beat Nigeria’s Super Eagles in the playoffs, to qualify for the 2022 World Cup, where they were eliminated in the group stage.
