The countdown to the Warriors’ return to action has begun, with Zimbabwe preparing for two Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifying matches against Equatorial Guinea in November.
The Warriors are scheduled to face Equatorial Guinea away on 12 November 2026 before hosting the same opponents on 16 November at the National Sports Stadium.

The two matches are part of the qualifiers for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations, which will be co-hosted by Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania. Zimbabwe are in Group E alongside Equatorial Guinea, Sierra Leone and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).
The Warriors head into the November fixtures following a dramatic 3–2 victory over Sierra Leone on 24 September. Zimbabwe came from two goals down to win the match, with Marshall Munetsi scoring twice and Tawanda Chirewa adding another goal.
However, Zimbabwe subsequently suffered a 2–1 defeat to the DRC at the National Sports Stadium on 28 September. Munetsi scored Zimbabwe’s only goal late in the match, but it was not enough to prevent defeat.
