Teams: Highlands Park v Bidvest Wits
Date: 26 November 2019
Venue: Makhulong Stadium
Highlands Park welcome Bidvest Wits to the Makhulong Stadium in a keenly anticipated Absa Premiership clash on Tuesday evening.
The Lions of the North are currently on a four-match winless run across all competitions, which also contributed to their Telkom Knockout exit to finalists Maritzburg United.
Highlands' last victory dates back to October 26 when goals from Spiwe Msimango and Tendai Ndoro earned a 2-0 victory over Chippa United at home.
Wits suffered heartbreak right at the death in their last encounter at home to SuperSport United as Sipho Mbule condemned the Clever Boys to a second league defeat.
With four games in hand, the Students sit pretty comfortable in fifth place 13 points shy off runaway league leaders Kaizer Chiefs.
Siyabangena Siyabahlaba are actually tied on 15 points, just a spot off their opponents with four wins from 11 matches played.
Highlands enter the showdown with a key casualty in Marks Munyai, who will sit on the sidelines following a one-match suspension.
