Hugo Broos has cut 25 players from his preliminary Bafana Bafana squad, with five Mamelodi Sundowns players and four from Orlando Pirates dropping out.
Bafana will take on Lesotho on 5 September and Nigeria four days later, with both games being played at Bloemfontein Stadium.
Broos’ men currently top Group C with 13 points from six games, five ahead of second-placed Rwanda and third-placed Benin, with Nigeria at fourth place with seven points.
Broos had selected a 48-man preliminary squad and had to cut 25 players due to various reasons.
