Zimbabwe vs South Africa 03.09.2021

Zimbabwe will kick start their quest for a ticket to next year’s World Cup when they host South Africa on Friday. The Warriors, as they are fondly called, will be making their third appearance at the AFCON. They go into this fixture knowing that securing a place at the World Cup, for the first time, will be another major achievement in their history.

Meanwhile, South Africa will be seeking only their second World Cup berth in their history. In fact,the only time they featured at the global football showpiece was in 2010 when they hosted. Therefore, winning the first group game in the qualifiers could be crucial as they look to join the plane to Qatar in 2022.

Based on past meetings and recent form, we are backing South Africa to win or draw with at least two goals scored.
