The Limpopo-based outfit are currently bottom of the three-team table after their day-one defeat away to Royal Eagles before Maritzburg United claimed all three points in the subsequent meeting between the pair at a lively Harry Gwala Stadium on Sunday.

Head Coach Moma Medic and his team will be looking to capitalise on Maritzburg’s poor away form, heading into the first-ever competitive clash between the two teams. The KZN side have won just one of their previous 14 matches on the road.

Mbulelo Wambi’s 21^st minute goal for Eagles in the opening affair inflicted Tshakhuma with their first defeat in eight matches. TTM will be relying on their recent home form, however, having won all of their last five matches played at the Thohoyandou Stadium since a 2-0 defeat to Royal Eagles back in February.
