The Limpopo side's struggles continued on Wednesday after suffering a 3-0 defeat to Marumo Gallants, leaving the side in last spot.
Kgoloko Thobejane knows only a victory by two goals will see his side move off the foot of the standings.
Baroka will also be without the services of Bennet Bobete, who was sent off in the second half against Gallants on Wednesday evening.
Galaxy, meanwhile, are also eager to get back on the winning trail after falling to a 3-0 defeat at the hands of Mamelodi Sundowns.
The loss left the Rockets in 15th position, three points ahead of Baroka but having played a game less. Victory this afternoon could see the side rise as high as 12th.
Galaxy claimed the spoils when these two sides met in November, with goals from Sinethemba Mngomezulu and Menzi Ndwandwe securing a come-from-behind win.
