The Warriors need a win to have any shot at staying alive. Zimbabwe faces South Africa in a decisive Group B match at the Africa Cup of Nations, with Bafana Bafana sitting second on three points and Zimbabwe fourth with one. Egypt has already clinched first place. Zimbabwe coach Mario Marinica stated his team must win and improve their finishing, while South Africa's Hugo Broos said his squad is two hundred percent motivated after a controversial loss to Egypt.

The teams last met during World Cup qualifying. South Africa took four points from those matches, including a three-one victory in Bloemfontein and a scoreless draw in Durban. Zimbabwe will rely on veteran forward Knowledge Musona, who scored their equalizer against Angola. South Africa will look to players like Oswin Appollis to break down a stubborn defense. History favors Bafana Bafana, who are unbeaten against their neighbors since 2013. A draw secures advancement for South Africa, leaving Zimbabwe eliminated.
