The group stage of the 2013 CECAFA Cup began on 27 November and ended on 5 December.[1] The matchdays were 27–29 November, 30 November–2 December and 3–5 December.
The group stage featured 11 CECAFA associations and COSAFA member Zambia as the invited association. Teams were drawn into groups of four, where the top two teams from each group and the two best third-placed teams would advance to the knockout stage.
The order of tie-breakers used when two or more teams have equal number of points is:
Number of points obtained in games between the teams involved;
Goal difference in games between the teams involved;
Goals scored in games between the teams involved;
Away goals scored in games between the teams involved;
Goal difference in all games;
Goals scored in all games;
Drawing of lots.
Key to colours in group tables
Group winners and runners-up advance to the quarter-finals

Group Aedit
Since Kenya and Ethiopia could not be separated using the tie-breaking criteria, a coin toss was used as the drawing of lots to determine the winner of Group A.[4]
In addition to the group stage winners and runners-up, the two best third-placed teams will be ranked at the end of the group stage to determine who will qualify for the knockout stage.
