This is the Premier League season opener for these teams, who are finally competing for points again. Who will get that important first win?

It's no vacation for neither Chippa United nor Mamelodi Sundowns as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

Mamelodi Sundowns have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1100 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
