The Warriors will play Lesotho and South Africa in Group C matches of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers in Bloemfontein and Johannesburg.

Zimbabwe will host Lesotho in the first match at the Free State Stadium in Bloemfontein on June 7, 2024.

Kick off is at 6pm CAT.

The national team was forced to use a neutral venue for this match due to the lack of availability of suitable stadiums in the country.

All local football fields were closed by CAF before the start of the qualifiers last November.

The Warriors had to host Nigeria in Rwanda on the second day of the campaign.

The second match against Bafana Bafana will be played at the Orlando Stadium in Johannesburg on June 11, 2024.

Kick-off is at 8 pm CAT.
