The first round of African qualifying will consist of the 24 lowest ranked teams in 12 home-and-away ties. The matches will be played on November 11th and 15th. Here are the contests with the teams world rank in parenthesis.

Djibouti (194th) vs Namibia (140th)
Mauritius (195th) vs Liberia (125th)
Guinea-Bissau (151st) vs Togo (123rd)
Seychelles (199th) vs Kenya (130th)

Lesotho (184th) vs Burundi (143rd)
Swaziland (169th) vs Congo DR (123rd)
São Tomé and Príncipe (unranked) vs Congo (129th)

The reason São Tomé and Príncipe is unranked is because they have not played a match since 2003 and the world rankings only look at matches played in the last four.
