Four teams sit level on zero points in Ghana’s Africa Cup of Nations 2027 qualifying group, and Gambia are next up for the Black Stars. Nothing separates anyone yet. The group runs six matchdays, home and away, with Ghana drawn alongside Gambia, Ivory Coast and Somalia for a place at the finals. Every side reads the same line in the table right now, zero wins, zero draws, zero defeats, tied on every criterion the group uses. Carlos Manuel Brito Leal de Queiroz takes his side into matchday 2 with that blank sheet still in front of him, off the back of 2 losses in a row. Fresh start, in theory.

Gambia travel to Accra as the Scorpions, sitting third in that same table. They have played nothing, scored nothing, conceded nothing, level with everyone else in the group on zero. Same blank sheet.
This one is at home for Ghana, kickoff Tuesday 29 September 2026, 16:00 Accra time, so it’s Black Stars supporters filling the stands rather than watching another away leg. Chale, that’s rare early in a campaign like this. Four teams starting from nothing means every point from here matters the same for all of them. Small small, this is where Ghana’s group campaign really begins.
