The return match will be played a week later at Dobsonville Stadium.
There are few changes in the squad named to take on The Panthers of Gabon.
Veteran striker Portia Modise and goalkeeper Roxanne Barker have both been left out of the squad, but youngsters Thembi Kgatlana (University of the Western Cape) and Rhoda Mulaudzi (Mamelodi Sundowns) have been included.
“Unfortunately, Portia is out with a hamstring injury and we will have to do without her, but other players will have to raise their hands. As for Roxanne, since this match does not fall on a FIFA Calendar date, her team refused to release her,” Pauw explains.
Spring Home Sweepers defender Nomathemba Ntsibande makes a welcome return into the team after missing out on the African Women’s Championship due to injury.
“Nomathemba is back and determined to leave a mark. In fact, through her sterling performances she literally selected herself," Pauw said.
Pauw says she is happy to be playing the first leg away.
“We don’t know much about our opponents; we have searched for information all over but had no joy, so this is like the Comoros game where we went into the match with little information on who we were facing.
“We will prepare for everything whether it is a weak or strong team, however difficult, but the players are used to it.
“It is also to our advantage that the first leg is away, and we will try and win the game away so that we finish the job at home.”
All players are expected to report for camp on Sunday.
