Bafana Bafana coach Stuart Baxter has named his starting line-up to face Namibia in the second African Cup of Nations Group D clash at the Cairo Production Military Stadium on Friday evening.

The match between the South African national team and Namibia is scheduled to get underway at 10pm (South African time).
 
Bafana will be hoping to bounce back following their narrow 1-0 defeat to Ivory Coast in opening Group D game at the Al-Salam Stadium on Monday.

Baxter has only one casualty as they will be without midfielder Dean Furman, who has been rules out of this match after sustaining a knee injury.
