With home advantage and a sold-out crowd behind them, Papi Zothwane’s side will be eager to return to winning ways and move closer to their season target.

Amakhosi have lost three consecutive matches, including a painful Soweto Derby defeat to Orlando Pirates, and now turn their full focus to the league after exiting both the Nedbank Cup and CAF Confederation Cup.

With the PSL now their only remaining shot at silverware, pressure is firmly on Cedric Kaze’s side to deliver.
