Broos’ charges face the Mozambicans at Mbombela Stadium, in Mbombela, Mpumalanga, on Thursday 17 November (kick off is at 8:30pm) and then tackle the Angolans three days later at the same venue on Sunday 20 November 2022.  

The Belgian coach will use the two games against the neighbouring countries as part of his preparation for the resumption of the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers in March next year.
