SABC1 will screen a total of 28 AFCON matches.

Major changes will be effected to the normal SABC1 schedule to accommodate the soccer spectacle. The 16h30 – 24h00 timeslots will be mainly affected by these changes, which are meant to ensure that viewers do not lose out on their favourite shows during the tournament.
