South Africa will host Angola at the Mbombela Stadium in Mbombela on Sunday (November 20) in a friendly.
The Bafana Bafana, who hosted the 2010 FIFA World Cup, failed to qualify for the Qatar showpiece after bowing out in the second round. Ghana pipped them for a spot in the next round by virtue of scoring one more goal after both teams ended up with equal points and goal difference.
South Africa are competing to book their place in the 2023 African Cup of Nations but lost their first qualifying game 2-1 to Morocco.
Lately, though, Hugo Broos' side are showing signs of returning to form, winning their last two friendlies in September.
Angola, meanwhile, failed to secure a second World Cup appearance after bowing out in the second round of the CAF qualifiers. The Giant Sable Antelopes came fourth in Group F after collecting just one win and five points in six games.
However, their chances of getting into next year's continental tournament look bright after collecting four points from their opening two qualifying games.
