Cape Town City and Royal AM will both be searching for their first victories in the DStv Premiership when they clash on Wednesday evening.
Teams: Royal AM v Cape Town City
Date: 25 August 2021
Venue: Chatsworth Stadium
The Citizens started their season on a good note after booking their spot in the semi-finals of the MTN8 with a 2-1 win over AmaZulu.
However, Eric Tinkler's charges had a slow start in the league after they played to a goalless draw against SuperSport United a week later.
Royal, meanwhile, almost earned their first point under the new management in their league opener on Sunday but succumbed to stoppage goal to lose 1-0 against Swallows.
Despite arranging the team in a short space of time, after buying the status of Bloemfontein Celtic, Thwihli Thwahla showed against the Birds that they won't be pushovers and are ready to compete.
