Ramahlwe ‘Rama’ Mphahlele and Erick ‘Tower’ Mathoho will both start in tonight’s Bafana Bafana game against Cape Verde in Praia’s Estadio Nacional. The 2018 World Cup Group D qualifier will kick-off at 20:30 (South African time).

‘Rama’ will start at right-back, while ‘Tower’ will partner Bidvest Wits’ Thulani Hlatswayo in the centre of defence.
