He said: > Our only hope is that we avoid the hosts so we are fine to draw every other team. > It’s always tricky playing against the hosts in the group stages because they will be at home and have the fans behind them. > Remember the last time we were drawn against hosts Egypt and we lost to them not because they were a better side, but simply because they were playing at home. > Every other team we have a good chance of beating them because we will be playing in a neutral venue. Mpandare insisted that the fact that the Warriors drew against AFCON champions Algeria back in November shows the strength of the team. He said: > In the qualification stages, we managed to draw against champions Algeria and I reckon if we play them in a neutral venue it can go either way. One thing for sure is that we have a very strong team. The Warriors qualified for a fifth AFCON appearance after finishing second in Group G behind defending champions Algeria in a group that also comprised neighbours Botswana and Zambia. Zimbabwe are in Pot 3 of the draw according to the FIFA international rankings and will get a chance to draw one weaker team in Pot 4 which comprises Malawi, Sudan, Equatorial Guinea, Comoros, Ethiopia and the Gambia. *More: The Standard* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
