Rise and Shine got their campaign off to winning start after edging Black Leopards 1-0 in their opener last Sunday, claiming the bragging rights of Polokwane in the process. Zlatko Krmpotic's charges were among six teams who won their opening matches last weekend and find themselves in seventh spot with three points. In contrast, Usuthu were at the receiving end of the heaviest defeat in the opening round, going down 3-0 to Bidvest Wits on home soil last Saturday. The KwaZulu-Natal based side are rock bottom of the table and without points in this early stages. In last season's meetings between the sides, they played to a goalless stalemate in the first round before Polokwane won the reverse fixture 3-2 earlier this year.
