Possible Bafana Line-Up: Appollis & Rele To Step In?

Bafana Bafana could take a more attacking approach for the FIFA World Cup against Czechia, with speedy and creative players set to make an entrance into the starting line-up.

The line-up Bafana Bafana had against Mexico in the opening Group A match was criticised for being too defensive, as coach Hugo Broos went with three central defenders and a three-man midfield without a number 10 or wingers to rely on for creativity.

This time, however, indications are that some changes will be made to the team to ensure they are a threat in the final third. Ronwen Williams is guaranteed to start in goal, and Broos could return to playing a back four, with Khuliso Mudau, Ime Okon, Mbekezi Mbokazi and Aubrey Modiba.

In midfield, Broos is likely to have Jayden Adams and Teboho Mokoena in front of the defence, with the possibility of Relebohile Mofokeng playing as a number 10, following the sending off of Themba Zwane in the opener against Mexico.

On the wings, Broos looks set to pin his hopes on Oswin Appollis and Thapelo Maseko, with Evidence Makgopa in a good position to start.

Bafana know that it's important not to lose the match to keep their hopes of progressing alive.

Predicted line-up: Williams, Mudau, Okon, Mbokazi, Modiba, Mokoena, Adams, Mofokeng, Appollis, Maseko, Makgopa
