Nigeria’s U-17 side, the Golden Eaglets, will know their group opponents of the 2019 U-17 Africa Cup of Nations on Thursday when the draw is staged in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.
The draw ceremony will take place at the Mlimani City Conference Centre, Dar Es Salam.
Hosts Tanzania are seeded in Group A, while Guinea who finished third at the last edition of the competition are seeded in Group B.
Guinea got the nod after defending champions, Mali and second placed Ghana failed to qualify for the competition.
The Golden Eaglets are drawn in pot 2 along with Morocco, Senegal and Uganda.
The biennial competition will be played between April 14 and 28.
The top four teams will represent Africa at the 2019 FIFA U-17 World Cup in Peru in October.
