As one of the favourites to lift the AFCON trophy, Senegal look to challenge Zimbabwe’s Warriors for a playoff spot in AFCON Group B. Group B constitutes Guinea, Malawi, Senegal and Zimbabwe. This will be the third encounter between these teams. The first meeting was also in AFCON, 2017 Group B, a match that Senegal won 2-0.

The Lions of Teranga were top of the 2017 AFCON Group B and Zimbabwe only managed a point in the group stages back then.
