The tie will see two west African giants go head-to-head, depriving one of a finals berth in South Africa. The draw, made in Johannesburg on Thursday evening, also sees champions Zambia face Uganda, while Libya will meet north African rivals Algeria. The ties will be played out over two legs between 7-9 September and 12-14 October.
