Maritzburg United welcome Baroka FC to the Harry Gwala Stadium on Wednesday evening, looking to claim back-to-back wins for the first time this season.
The Team of Choice got their first win of the season at the sixth attempt as Thabiso Kutumela's strike secured a 1-0 win over Chippa United.
Heading into the encounter, Eric Tinkler's charges find themselves in 13th position with five points to their name.
Baroka, meanwhile, will be eager to return to winning ways after back-to-back losses to Highlands Park and Kaizer Chiefs.
The Limpopo currently occupy 11th spot but could rise as high as the top five, provided other results go their in favour.
