Morocco (nine points) and Ivory Coast (eight) will vie for Group C. Morocco has not allowed a goal through its first five matches and has a plus-nine goal differential. The two countries will play Nov. 11 in Ivory Coast.
Senegal (eight points) leads Group D even though it has only played four matches; its 2-1 loss to South Africa in November 2016 will be replayed Nov. 10. Burkina Faso and Cape Verde both have six points.

Elsewhere, six additional spots will be determined by qualifiers. Here's the list of European teams that will play home-and-home playoffs:

The pairings have not been determined, but the four winners will advance to the World Cup.

Australia and Honduras will twice go head-to-head between Nov. 6-14 for one qualifying spot, and New Zealand and Peru will also vie for one World Cup berth.
