I must be getting old or perhaps my interest regarding football is quickly diminishing. I forgot about the 2017 AFCON qualification - it finished at the start of September.
The draw will take place on 19 October 2016.

2018 FIFA World Cup: CAF qualifying format to be changed?
In May 2013, CAF announced the qualifying format for the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations (hosted by Morocco).
With all the 2014 FIFA match dates used for the 2015 qualifiers, it means the preliminaries for the 2017 ACN and 2018 World Cup will only start in 2015. The preliminary draw for the 2018 FIFA World Cup will take place on 24 or 25 July 2015.
CAF can't use the 2010 WCQ system because back then the World Cup and the Nations Cup where held in the same year.
