Moroka Swallows form and stats

Disaster struck Moroka Swallows last season as they could not defend their status as a Premier League team. With 12 defeats from 30 games, and only 4 wins, relegation could not be avoided. Moroka Swallows are hopeful of bouncing straight back up, but need to improve upon their home record from last season of W2 D6 L7.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Swallows as they are travelling to their away game against University of Pretoria in the Premier League Play-offs. That match is three days after this one.
