Bafana Bafana have announced their starting for today’s COSAFA Cup plate final.
Helman Mkhalele has made eight changed to the side that beat Madagascar 2-1 on Friday to book their ticket in the fifth-place playoff.
There are six news caps in the starting line-up.
Botswana, meanwhile beat Eswatini 2-0 to book their place after losing their quarter-final on penalties to Zambia.
It will be Botswana’s sixth match at the COSAFA Cup after they collected three 1-0 wins in the group stage, while Bafana only entered at the quarter-final stage but lost to Mozambique.
The two teams also met at last year’s COSAFA Cup when Bafana won 1-0 thanks to a goal by Kagiso Malinga.
Here is how they line up:
Bafana XI: Mzimela, Mahlangu, Johannes, Cele, Mcaba, Ndhlovu, Human, Shezi, Van Wyk, Mashigo, Malivha
Botswana: Phoko, Kebue, Velaphi, Ditsele, Cooper, Kolagano, Kopelang, Tauyatswala, David, Morwalela
