This has led to his Nigeria counterpart Gernot Rohr describing Bafana Bafana as the favourites heading into the showdown.
"One of the really important things for us is to remain very, very humble," Baxter told the media on Tuesday.
"If you look back not so long ago, we wouldn't be over-confident going into a game against Nigeria. The Nigerians are still one of the powerhouses of the continent."
