A 2-0 home win vs Sekhukhune United proved a false dawn as they lost 1-0 at home to Polokwane. A 3-2 home defeat vs Golden Arrows and a come-from-behind 2-2 draw at Kaizer Chiefs followed.
After losing 2-1 at AmaZulu, they were beaten 3-1 at home by TS Galaxy. Their last match was four weeks ago as their players refused to train over unpaid salaries.
Target man Mxolisi Macuphu is injured. Sedwyn George could start up front after his goal from the bench last time out.
Midfielder Sibusiso Magaqa is suspended for this one. Coach John Maduka may have some players missing due to off-field problems.
