When playing at home in the Premier League, Chippa United have managed 3 wins, 3 draws and suffered 2 defeats from 8 games.

Stellenbosch form and stats

Stellenbosch are travelling after their nice 3-2 home win in the match against Cape Town City (placed 9th). Eureka; their first victory in the league after nine rounds not winning. An amazing comeback from Stellenbosch last time out, trailing 0-2 before rallying an inspired fight which eventually led to Mngomezulu scoring the winning goal in the 83rd minute. Mngomezulu came off the bench to score the winning goal in the match against Cape Town City last time out, making the manager Barker feel like a tactical genius.
It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Orlando Pirates wasn't a success with a 1-4 loss.As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite.
