What is the difference between the CHAN and the AFCON?

The CHAN (African Nations Championship) and the AFCON (Africa Cup of Nations) are two 2 football tournaments organized by the Confederation of African Football (CAF). The 1x Bet website also gives you the chance to bet on those 2 competitions too. However, they differ in 3 key aspects:

  • purpose;
  • eligibility;
  • and prestige.

The AFCON, officially known as the Africa Cup of Nations, is the premier football competition in Africa. It has been held since 1957 and features the best national teams from across the continent, and punters can also go to 1x Bet to make their bets on it too.

The key distinction of AFCON is that all players are eligible, regardless of where they play professionally, whether in Europe, Asia, or elsewhere. This means national teams can call up their top international stars, such as Mohamed Salah (Egypt), Sadio Mané (Senegal), or Riyad Mahrez (Algeria), who usually play for top clubs in Europe.

Boosting local talent

On the other hand, the CHAN, or African Nations Championship, was introduced in 2009 and is designed specifically to promote local talent. Making the 1xBet login registration is definitely a great step to start wagering on this amazing championship.

Only players who play in their country’s domestic league are eligible. For instance, a player from Nigeria who plays in the South African league cannot participate in CHAN, even if he's Nigerian. This rule is meant to showcase and develop players who have not yet moved abroad and to strengthen local football leagues across Africa. Also, by completing the 1xBet registration and then making a login to your account, it will also be possible to wager on various African football leagues too.

Differences in popularity

In terms of prestige and visibility, AFCON is far more prominent. It is Africa's flagship football competition and draws global attention. CHAN, while important, is often seen as a developmental tournament and does not receive the same level of international exposure or media coverage. Punters can also find all live betting on 1xbet.ug/live on matches from those 2 tournaments too.

In terms of frequency. Both tournaments are held every 2 years, but their schedules often alternate to avoid overlap. This allows African nations to focus on just 1 tournament at a time and gives players from domestic leagues a platform through CHAN. For that reason, there is absolutely no problem in going to the 1xBet platform and trying all live betting on both of these championships.
