Naturally, given the tournament has not yet started, injuries are few and far between.

Luckily for Broos, South Africa come into the match with no fitness concerns.

Burnley’s Lyle Foster will likely lead the line for Bafana Bafana, though he has come in for scrutiny of late amid a run of just one goal in his last 13 matches.

Angola come into the tournament with one injury concern. AEK Athens striker Zini has not played since picking up an injury in a Conference League defeat of Fiorentina in late November, and it remains unclear whether he will be fit to face South Africa.

Swansea’s Manuel Benson will be expected to provide much of the side’s attacking impetus, alongside Cagliari’s Zito Luvumbo. OL Lyon’s Clinton Mata will lead from the back, with fellow veteran Fredy ahead of him in midfield.

South Africa come into this tournament with something of a point to prove. Three decades without an AFCON title is an awkward record, and Bafana Bafana will be desperate to return to the top step of the proverbial podium.

That, of course, will be easier said than done, though they have an opportunity to make a real statement of intent here in what should arguably be their easiest group stage match.

Deliver on Monday, and they could kick on a historic campaign. Likewise, a loss could prove seriously damaging.
