2017 Africa Cup of Nations qualification Group D

Group D of the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations qualification tournament was one of the thirteen groups to decide the teams which qualified for the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations finals tournament. The group consisted of four teams: Burkina Faso, Uganda, Botswana, and Comoros.[1]

The teams played against each other home-and-away in a round-robin format, between June 2015 and September 2016.[2]

Burkina Faso, the group winners, qualified for the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations, while group runners-up Uganda also qualified due to being one of the two group runners-up with the best records.[3]
