Fifa president Joseph Sepp Blatter and Fifa secretary-general Jerome Valcke were expected at the Harare International Airport this morning for a day's visit where they will meet the country's football authorities.

The Fifa chiefs will be the star attraction when Zimbabwe's Mighty Warriors take on Malawi in a Cosafa Women championships Group A clash at Rufaro Stadium on Monday afternoon.

The visit by the two most powerful men in world football will be a big boost for the organisers of the Southern region women's championships whose tournament kicked off on Saturday under a cloud of uncertainties.

With Blatter now expected to grace the event, this year's edition looks certain to go down the history books as the best ever since the inception of the tournament in 2002.
