Despite all the probems with the Sports Ministry and the Ghana FA, Saturday's qualifier at the Accra Sports Stadium between Ghana and Rwanda will come off.
Ghana have already booked a spot and for them, the game will be a formality. Andre Ayew and Asamoah Gyan will not be available to play.
As for Rwanda, they come into the match placed second on the standings with six points, though they have no mathematical chance of finishing as one of the two best runners-up, who will also qualify for the Afcon tournament.
The Black Stars claimed a narrow 1-0 win over Rwanda when the teams met in their group match in Kigali a year ago, with Mubarak Wakaso scoring a late goal to see the West Africans to victory.
Group H’s other match in the final round sees Mozambique host Mauritius in Maputo on Saturday. The game at the Accra Sports Stadium will be refereed by Cameroonian Antoine Effa.
