Mbombela United hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 12 points and a 14th position in the Gladafrica Championship table. Visiting Moroka Swallows holds 10th place with 15 pts.
Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!
