There was no change in the top 13 teams, with Egypt remaining as the only side not to have played in the 2010 World Cup among the list.

The African champions reached their best-ever position in the table last month, despite not playing any games since a 3-1 defeat in England last March.

Egypt host DR Congo in a friendly game at Cairo Stadium on Wednesday as both teams prepare for the 2012 African Cup of Nations qualifiers next month.
