Information coming out of the Chloorkop camp is that the team is looking to leave early in order to acclimatise themselves with the weather and conditions in DRC.

"Yes, the game will be played on Sunday and the technical team has requested that they leave early for DRC so that they can be used to the weather and conditions there.
