Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Bloemfontein Celtic in 10th and AmaZulu in 9th place.
- Bloemfontein Celtic has the fewest matches over the total-line (3) in Premier League
- AmaZulu have yet to win a game away.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

2-1-1 (win-draw-lost) are the Premier League numbers at home for Bloemfontein Celtic so far this season. Two home wins in a row for Bloemfontein bring valid hopes of a third.
