The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Uthongathi are in the 6th position while the guests worry at 11th.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

It's quite the trip for Cape Umoya United when visiting Uthongathi as the cities are 1600 kilometers apart.
