Zimbabwe and Egypt will meet for the 13th time tonight when the 2019 Afcon gets underway.

The Pharaohs have dominated the encounter, winning seven games while the Warriors have only one victory which came way back in 1992. The teams have played each other once at an Afcon tournament, at the 2004 edition, and it was the Egyptians who won it.

The last meeting between the two sides happened in 2013 in the 2014 Word Cup qualifiers, and the North Africans emerged 4-2 victors in Harare.
