    Bafana team news & squads

    Bafana would be hoping the absence of playmaker Themba Zwane will not be felt in this away fixture but in-form Relebohile Mofokeng seems ready for the responsibility to carry the national team.

    Centre-back Mothobi Mvala is also out nursing a long-term injury but coach Hugo Broos has enough cover in Nkosinathi Sibisi, Siyabonga Ngezana and Grant Kekana.

    Bafana possible XI: Williams, Mudau, Basadien, Ngezana, Sibisi, Mokoena, Adams, Mofokeng, Mokwana, Morena, Foster

    Head-to-head and recent form

    Benin are second in Group C with two points fewer than log leaders Bafana and are coming from surrendering a two-goal lead to draw 2-2 with Zimbabwe last Friday.

    They have won two games and drawn as many matches and the only time they lost was when they were defeated 2-1 by Bafana in Durban in 2023.

    The Cheetahs face a South African side that is unbeaten in 16 competitive games across all competitions.

    Bafana's only loss in this campaign was when they were defeated by Rwanda in their second match of the qualifiers.
