The four-time African champions, who previously rose by one position in the last update, now sit 73rd in the world after a successful October international window.

Under head coach Otto Addo, the team recorded an impressive 5–0 victory over Madagascar in Morocco and a narrow 1–0 win against Comoros at the Accra Sports Stadium.
