With their 3 point advantage in the league table, Black Leopards fans are hoping to see their team collect maximum points from this game against AmaZulu.
This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!
It's quite the trip for AmaZulu when visiting Black Leopards as the cities are 800 kilometers apart.
Black Leopards form and stats
3-1-3 (win-draw-lost) are the Premier League numbers at home for Black Leopards so far this season. Two home wins in a row for Black Leopards bring valid hopes of a third.

AmaZulu form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for AmaZulu so far with only 4 points returning home. The records show 1-1-4 (win-draw-lose).

AmaZulu delivered a 0-0 draw playing at home against Maritzburg United (placed 10th) in their previous match; a Premier League game. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Mamelodi Sundowns wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.
