Uganda will be eyeing nothing but a win over Comoros in their final 2017 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifier at the Mandela National Stadium in Kampala on Sunday.

Kick-off is at 16h00 (CAT).

The Cranes of Uganda need a victory over Comoros in order to qualify for the AFCON finals for the first time in 39 years.

They are currently placed second on Group D standings with 10 points. They are only behind leaders Burkina Faso on head-to-head.

Milutin Sredojevic's side will win group D if they defeat Comoros and Burkina Faso register a draw or loss against Botswana.

Comoros' Les Coelecantes are desperate for a victory over Uganda in order to finish above Botswana on Group D standings.

Amir Abdou, who have already been eliminated, are currently fourth on Group D standings with three points - three behind Botswana.

Tony Mawejje's first-half goal helped Uganda beat Comoros 1-0 in the two teams' first group meeting in Mitsamiouli.

Senegalese referee Malang Diedhiou will officiate the encounter between Uganda and Comoros on Sunday afternoon.
