Bafana Bafana and Malawi will do battle in the COSAFA Cup third/fourth play-off clash on Sunday afternoon.
COSAFA Cup
Teams: Malawi v South Africa
Date: 16 July 2023
Venue: King Goodwill Zwelithini Stadium
Time: 15h00
Bafana dropped to the bronze medal match after suffering a 2-1 defeat to Zambia in the semi-finals on Tuesday evening.
That loss was South Africa's first of the competition but they are looking to add the bronze medal as a consolation prize.
Morena Ramoreboli's charges will now come up against a Malawi side, who had a perfect record in the group stages where they did not concede a goal.
However, Malawi were unable to carry that form into the semi-finals as they lost to Lesotho via the penalty shoot-out on Tuesday afternoon.
These two nations last met at the 2019 COSAFA Cup Plate final, where Bafana Bafana came out on top in the penalty shoot-out.
Here's how they line up:
South Africa: Mzimela, Dithejane, Mohamme, Gumede, Sebetlela, Palace, Kobedi, Human, Tlolane, Letsoalo, Mabasa
Malawi: Munthali, Chembezi, Chaziya, Rameck, Willard, Daniel, Idana, Mapemba, Mwaungulu, Kaonga, Mphasi
