Mabedi makes one change to first XI against Comoros

Flames interim coach Patrick Mabedi has made one change to the team that faces Comoros in this afternoon’s crucial Group B tie at Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban.

Winger Patrick Mwaungulu starts today after an impressive performance in the last match in which he came in as a substitute.

He replaces Robert Saizi on the right wing.

The rest of the teams is unchanged: Brighton Munthali starts in goals.

Stanley Sanudi, Nickson Mwase, Dennis Chembezi and Alick Lungu take up the usual role in defence.

Lloyd Aaron maintains the defending midfielder role with Chimwemwe Idana attacking from the central turf whereas Lanjesi Nkhoma will play wide on the left.

Chawanangwa Kaonga and Christopher Kumwembe will maintain their partnership upfront.
