South Sudan host Egypt in the second round of the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers today, Tuesday, September 29. The Group B match will be played at the Juba National Stadium in Juba, with kickoff at 1:00 p.m. UTC (9:00 a.m. ET in the US).
Both teams are looking for their first win of the qualifying campaign. South Sudan opened Group B with a 2-1 defeat to Malawi in Lilongwe. Egypt were held to a 0–0 draw by Angola in Cairo.
Egypt therefore have one point after Matchday 1, while South Sudan remain without a point. Malawi sit at the top of the group with three points.
