African minnows Comoros get their AFCON campaign underway later this evening when they face Gabon.
Stepping out onto the field at the Ahmadou Ahidjo Stadium will be a significant moment in Comoros’ rather short history in that it will be the first time that the nation has made the Africa Cup of Nations tournament.
Their Group C opponents, Gabon, on the other hand, will be appearing in their eighth AFCON and hoping to escape the group for the first time since 2012.

Comoros vs Gabon preview
Comoros were a bit of a surprise package in qualifying, finishing second to Mohamed Salah’s Egypt in the group after winning two games, drawing three, and losing just once.
Now, the first challenge facing Amir Abdou’s men as they embark onto their first ever AFCON campaign is a Gabon side ranked 43 places higher in the most recent FIFA World rankings.
Ranked higher they might be, but, like Comoros, Gabon also qualified as runners-up in AFCON Qualifying Group D, narrowly behind group winners, Gambia.
Gabon haven’t been in the best form since then either and failed to qualify for the 2022 World Cup after finishing 10 points behind Egypt.
Exiled Arsenal forward Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang scored the only goal for Gabon in the side’s most recent fixture vs Mauritania, but the former Dortmund star’s contribution was only enough to eke out a 1-1 draw come the final whistle.
When does Comoros vs Gabon kick off?
Comoros vs Gabon kicks off at 19:00 GMT on Monday, January 10 at the Ahmadou Ahidjo Stadium
