The Super Falcons of Nigeria have been billed to face Sao Tome and Principe in the first round of the qualifiers for the 2023 Africa Women’s Cup of Nations.
Should the Super Falcons scale through the hurdle, the former champions will face the winner between Cape Verde and Liberia in the second round and the winners will seal a place in Morocco 2024.
The qualifiers will start next month with first round matches.
The Super Falcons finished fourth at the last edition of the WAFCON also hosted by Morocco.
It was the second time Nigeria failed to win a medal in the history of the competition.
The West Africans are the most successful side in the history of the competition having won the title nine times.
