At the Somhlolo National Stadium on Friday, the midfielder picked up his second yellow card of the qualifying series in the 22nd minute, meaning he is not eligible to face the African powerhouse on Tuesday.
Felix Badernhost (Mbabane Swallows) and Mcolisi Lukhele (Moneni Pirates) did not travel with the squad to Port Harcourt as they are both nursing injuries, while Xolani Sibandze has stayed back in Swaziland due to academic commitments.
Tsabedze, Badernhost and Lukhele were named in the starting line - up in the first leg clash against Nigeria, while Sibandze was introduced in the 80th minute.
