The 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier between Bafana Bafana and Nigeria is scheduled to take place at the Free State Stadium in Bloemfontein.
The World Cup qualifier will be held at the venue after a recent physical inspection of the pitch.
The encounter is set to kick-off at 18:00 on Tuesday after South Africa takes on Lesotho this Friday.
“Considering the encouraging progress observed on the pitch, both organisations have agreed that the matches will proceed as originally scheduled at the Free State Stadium,” the statement from FIFA and CAF read.
