Bafana Bafana often find it difficult to play when they are away from home, especially in unfamiliar conditions. I expect them to play out to a 1-1 draw against Ethiopia.
Anytime Goal Scorers
Ethiopia- Getaneh Kebede- Kebede is a prolific scorer at international level and South Africa must be weary of him.
South Africa- Bongokuhle Hlongwane- Hlongwane heads into the game on the back of good form and he will be keen to carry that on against Ethiopia.
