CHAN 2024 brings Africa's best home-based players into the spotlight. If you want clear, practical ways to follow the action, this page helps. You’ll find where to watch, how to track scores, which teams to watch, and smart tips for tickets and bets.
Most matches are shown on regional sports channels and streaming platforms. Look for broadcasts from local broadcasters in your country and check CAF's official channels for live updates. If you can’t get a TV feed, follow live scores on sports apps and social media accounts of national federations. Use push alerts for goals and red cards so you don’t miss big moments.
CHAN uses a group stage followed by knockout rounds. Group winners and runners-up usually advance, so early wins matter a lot. Pay attention to match times: local kickoffs can be late or early depending on the host country. Keep a simple calendar with match dates, kickoffs, and TV windows. That way you avoid scrambling for streams at the last minute.
Which teams should you watch? Traditional powerhouses with strong local leagues often do well: keep an eye on North and West African sides and countries with stable domestic competitions. Watch fullbacks and midfielders — CHAN often reveals defensive talents and creative midfielders who run games for their clubs too.
Squad news is key. Because CHAN is limited to home-based players, last-minute injuries and club releases change lineups fast. Follow team announcements and pre-match press conferences. Lineup changes can swing betting odds and starting strategies.
Ticket tips and matchday advice
Buy tickets from official outlets only. If you buy second-hand, confirm the seller and ask for a photo of the ticket barcode. Arrive early to avoid crowds and enjoy fan zones where available. Carry small change for food and transport and keep your ID on you — some venues do simple checks. Wear team colors but stay respectful around rival fans.
Betting and fantasy pointers
If you place bets, focus on simple markets: match result, both teams to score, or first goal timeframe. CHAN games can be low-scoring and tight, especially in knockout rounds. Look for in-play value if you watch live; an early injury or sending-off shifts odds quickly. For fantasy games, prioritise players who take set pieces or penalties — they score more points.
Follow local stories
CHAN is as much about local stories as about results. Young players often use the tournament to earn moves abroad. Keep an eye on standout performers from lesser-known clubs — transfer news often follows strong CHAN displays. Read post-match interviews to catch who impressed scouts and coaches.
Need quick links? Bookmark CAF's official page, local federation accounts, and a reliable live-score app. Turn on notifications for match start times and major updates. That simple setup keeps you ahead without watching every minute.
