Conditioning or lack thereof could be key when Bafana Bafana face Senegal in a friendly international in Durban next week.
It is speculated that coach Pitso Mosimane will probably include more locally based players in his squad that will be announced tomorrow.
According to experts the last time the South African National soccer coach had a full strength squad at his disposal was against Ivory Coast in November.
Experts further expect it to be a daunting task to get Bafana Bafana match fit in time for next Wednesday's clash with Senegal.
Senegal reached the semi-final stage of the tournament and are expected to be more active and more in form then Bafana Bafana
Bafana Bafana were unable to qualify for the African Cup of Nations tournament and even though the ABSA Premiership is back in full swing, only three rounds of matches will have been played by the time of the clash with Senegal.
Meanwhile Senegal reached the semi-final stage of the tournament and are expected to be more active and more in form then Bafana Bafana.
Fransesco Gonzales, Bafana Bafana physical trainer says that "we are trying to put everybody in good condition in a short period of time at our disposal but as for Senegal, they are strong competition because they have just come out of a big tournament."
According to reports Mosimane will include some of his overseas-based stars of which most do not get regular game time in their respective abroad clubs.
There has also been a whisper that Mosimane is likely to rope in Free State Stars forward Edward.
