Teams: AmaZulu and Chippa United
Date: 09 November 2019
Venue: Princess Magogo Stadium
AmaZulu will be looking to continue their good run of form when they host rock-bottom Chippa United on Saturday evening at Princess Magogo Stadium.
Slovakian-born coach Jozef Vukusic has turned a dire situation around since arriving at Usuthu, after winning three consecutive games that moved them away from the relegation zone.
In contrast, new Chippa coach Norman Mapeza has not hit the ground running at the Port Elizabeth based outfit, as they are still yet to win a league game this season.
The Chilli Boys' losing extended their losing run to four matches in the Absa Premiership after going down 2-0 to Kaizer Chiefs on Wednesday. As a result, they are rooted at the bottom of the log.
In their meetings last season in the league, Usuthu won the first round clash 1-0, while Chippa repeated the same scenario of winning the return fixture in Durban.
