While the last two countries never made it past the group stage, neighboring Libya will be Madjid Bougherra&#8217;s men&#8217;s biggest rival, but the Libyans, winners of the competition in 2014, have lost their spark in recent years and end up, almost always, in the first round.<\/p>\n<p>Two-time champions Morocco will face Sudan, Madagascar and Ghana in Group C. If the Malagasy are debutants in the competition, the Atlas Lions should be wary of Sudan, which finished third in the tournament twice, and Ghana, twice runner-up. -champion.<\/p>\n<p>Mali-Mauritania, DRC-Uganda, Cameroon-Congo are interesting group stage matches.<\/p>\n<p>With the Democratic Republic of Congo, C\u00f2te d&#8217;Ivoire, Senegal and Uganda, Group B promises to be one of the most balanced. Crowned twice, the Leopards start as favourites, but will remain vigilant against the Senegalese, back in the spotlight after losing four editions, and the Ivorians, absent in 2020, but without neglecting Uganda.<\/p>\n<p>In the groups of three, Mali, the unfortunate finalist of the previous edition, is the favorite of Group D but hopes to play in two &#8220;finals&#8221; against neighboring Mauritania and Angola, which will give everything to return to the protagonist of the feat achieved in 2011, in Sudan, when it took second place. The same situation in Group E, where Cameroon will have to watch out for Niger and Congo, which reached the quarter-finals of the two previous editions.<\/p>\n<p>Here is the constitution of the CHAN&#8217;2023 groups. Group A: Algeria, Libya, Ethiopia and Mozambique; Group B: Democratic Republic of Congo, Senegal, C\u00f4te d&#8217;Ivoire, and Uganda; Group C: Morocco, Sudan, Madagascar and Ghana, Group D: ANGOLA, Mali and Mauritania and Group E: Cameroon, Congo and Niger.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/angola\">Angola<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Angola.
