South Africa - Kenya

South Africa host Kenya on 13 November 2026 for this Africa Cup of Nations qualification matchday 3 fixture. As the group campaign intensifies, South Africa enter the contest with significant momentum, having secured consecutive victories against Guinea and Eritrea. This clash represents a critical opportunity for both sides to establish dominance in the group standings, with South Africa looking to maintain their perfect start to the qualification process.

Kenya arrive seeking a resurgence after a challenging run in their previous outings. A narrow defeat to Guinea on 1 October 2026 followed a hard-fought draw with Eritrea, leaving the visitors eager to find their rhythm against an in-form opponent. While South Africa hold the edge in recent competitive results, the history between these two nations includes a 2-1 victory for South Africa in a friendly match on 16 October 2012, setting the stage for a competitive encounter.
