The draw for the 2024 African Nations Championship (CHAN) will hold on Tuesday in Cairo , Egypt.
The home-based Super Eagles look set to do battle in a difficult group as they are not among the seeded teams in the draw.
CAF has placed the home-based Super Eagles in Pot 3.
Teams are seeded based on results in the last three editions of CHAN (2022, 2020 and 2018).
Nigeria is making a return to the biennial competition after a six-year absence.
Co-hosts Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda as well as defending champions Senegal will occupy Pot 1.
The CHAN will feature national teams consisting of players currently playing in their respective local leagues.
It will run from February 1 to February 28, 2025.
