Zimbabwe vs Kenya Prediction and Betting Tips | November 15th 2024

Zimbabwe will go up against Kenya at the Peter Mokaba Stadium in Limpopo, South Africa on Friday in another round of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers. The Warriors of Zimbabwe will be looking to seal their qualification spot by extending their unbeaten run in Group J.

Zimbabwe won both of their games against Namibia during the last international break, with their 3-1 win over the Namibia Warriors in the fourth round placing them second in their qualifying group, just two points behind group leaders Cameroon. They will be looking to pick up where they left off by getting a result against Kenya, who are four points behind them in third place.

Kenya, on the other hand, failed to pick up points during the last international break as they lost both games to Cameroon by an aggregate scoreline of 5-1. The Harambee Stars' fourth-round 1-0 defeat to the Indomitable Lions has put them on the brink of elimination as anything short of a win in Friday's match will rule them out of qualifying from the group.

Zimbabwe vs Kenya Prediction

The two teams are very evenly matched and Friday's match may prove to be an uneventful affair. A draw will be enough to seal Zimbabwe's qualification, so they will be comfortable to sit back and rely on their solid defensive record to get the required result.

Kenya are on a run of back-to-back defeats and have won just one of their last four matches. However, they have been the dominant side in this fixture historically and should have enough to win this one.

Prediction: Zimbabwe 0-1 Kenya
