The preliminary draw for the 2025/26 MTN FA Cup will be held on Thursday, October 9, at the Ghana Football Association (GFA) headquarters in Accra.
The GFA confirmed the date on Tuesday, revealing that a total of 92 clubs drawn from Division One and Division Two will enter the hat as they chase qualification to the Round of 64.
“The draw for the preliminary stage of the 2025–26 #MTNFACup comes off this Thursday, October 9, 2025, at the Ghana Football Association headquarters. Ninety-two clubs from Division 1 & 2 will learn their opponents as they begin the journey in Ghana’s most prestigious knockout competition,” the GFA announced.
Reigning champions Asante Kotoko will join in the later stages as they look to defend the title they won last season; one that secured them a place in this year’s CAF Confederation Cup.
The FA Cup remains Ghana’s most unpredictable tournament, offering lower-tier sides the chance to test their strength against Premier League giants and chase glory in the country’s oldest knockout competition.
