Goal Scorer:
South Africa
Lyle Foster was South Africa's top scorer in qualifying, but the Burnley striker withdrew from the squad in the lead-up to the tournament due to personal reasons.
Bafana Bafana are not the same team without Foster leading the line, and that became quite evident against Mali, especially in the second half when the South African attack looked as though they had run out of ideas.
While the South Africans came out of that match injury-free, it would come as no surprise if Broos opts to make several changes for this crucial encounter, which could see Zakhele Lepasa make the starting 11.
South Africa possible starting lineup:
Williams; Mobbie, Xulu, Mvala, Modiba; Mayambela, Sithole, Mokoena, Tau; Lepasa, Makgopa
Namibia
Deon Hotto scored the historic goal for Namibia against Tunisia in the 88th minute and will look to play a starring role again in this match alongside his midfield partner Prins Tjiueza.
Peter Shalulile, who plays club football in South Africa for PSL champions Mamelodi Sundowns, is expected to lead the line against the team that features several of his clubmates, including his club captain Ronwen Williams.
Namibia possible starting lineup:
Kazapua; Nyambe, Amutenya, Haukongo, Hanuman; Petrus, Iimbondi, Shitembi, Tijueza, Hotto; Shalulile
Prediction: South Africa 1-1 Namibia
