Ghana have been drawn against Malawi in the final round of qualifying for the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations.

Thursday's draw in Johannesburg saw 30 countries split into 15 home-and-away ties with the winners joining hosts, South Africa, who are automatic qualifiers for the Nations Cup.

The Black Stars will host the first leg tie between 7-9 September with the return game scheduled for the weekend of 12-14 October.

Next year's finals will mark the last time that the Nations Cup will be held in even-number years since Ethiopia staged the 1968 finals.

The competition switches to uneven-number years from 2013 to avoid every second tournament being staged in the same year as a World Cup.
