Competition: South Africa Premier League
Date: Tue 01.October
Match begins: 17:30 (UTC)
Venue: King Goodwill Zwelithini Stadium (14500 seats)

Season ticket holders at King Goodwill Zwelithini Stadium haven’t seen too many victories this season, with AmaZulu languishing in the 16th position so far. The guesting Cape Town City will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 1600 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.

AmaZulu form and stats

Three Premier League home games done for AmaZulu, who are not happy collecting 1 point from these matches.

The fans are hoping that AmaZulu will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-1 away loss in the Premier League game against SuperSport United (placed 6th). Preceding that match was a defeat to Kaizer Chiefs (0-2).

The lack of attacking qualities in AmaZulu means that they have only scored 0 goals in 3 league home games, less than half a goal per match. AmaZulu have conceded 5 from these games.
