South Africa play host to Ethiopia at FNB Stadium in Johannesburg in what could be the crucial qualifier for the hosts. Bafana Bafana aim to retain top position in Group G, and we are positive that they will go all guns blazing at the visitors. Even though Orlando Pirates attacker Mabasa is likely to miss the match with injury, home win should be considered as South Africa impressed in a 3-1 win over Ethiopia at Bahir Dar Stadium.
Bongokuhle Hlongwane is widely expected to lead the line for the hosts. The visitors, on the other hand, have slim chances of securing their place at the 2022 World Cup finals, and given their shaky defence, anything but a routine home win would be a major surprise. South Africa defenders should have Getaneh Kebede at bay as he found the net in the last group game.
