Somalia face Ghana in the fourth round of the Africa Cup of Nations 2027 qualifying group stage on Monday, 16 November 2026, with kick-off scheduled for 15:00 GMT at the Accra Sports Stadium in Accra.
The fixture comes four days after the teams’ previous meeting, when Ghana claimed a 2-0 victory over Somalia on 12 November 2026.
Kick-off will be at 15:00 in Dakar, Abidjan and Casablanca. It will begin at 16:00 in Algiers, Tunis, Lagos, Kinshasa and Paris, at 17:00 in Cairo and Johannesburg, and at 18:00 in Nairobi.
Although the match is being played in Accra, Somalia are listed as the home side on the fixture schedule.
