Czech Republic and South Africa are looking to bounce back from defeats in their opening World Cup games when they meet in Atlanta on Thursday.
Czechia took the lead against South Korea in their first match in Group A thanks to Wolves loanee Ladislav Krejčí's header before conceding twice to leave empty handed.
Bafana Bafana, meanwhile, were fortunate to only concede twice to co-hosts Mexico and finished the tournament opener with nine men on the pitch after Yaya Sithole and Themba Zwane saw red.
