Bafana Bafana's predicted starting XI to face Angola in Mbombela

10:32 PM IST 19/11/22

The home team will be looking to extend their winning run when they square off with the 2006 World Cup participants.

South Africa will go head to head with Angola in an international friendly match at Mbombela Stadium on Sunday.

Bafana Bafana are coming into the encounter in great form having made it three wins in a row when they defeated Mozambique on Thursday.
Coach Hugo Broos has indicated that he won't make too many changes to the team that faced the Mambas.
The Belgian tactician is keen to ensure that Bafana maintain their winning momentum ahead of next March's 2023 Afcon qualifiers.
GOAL takes a look at how South Africa could start against their Southern African rivals.
