Teams: Sekhukhune United v Baroka
Date: 20 February 2022
Venue: Emirates Airline Park
Time: 18h00
Sekhukhune extended their winless to six matches in all competitions after a narrow 1-0 loss to Royal AM on Tuesday, after they were also dumped out of the Nedbank Cup by second-tier side Platinum City Rovers.
Babina Noko have dropped down to eighth on the table with 25 points and could drop out of the top eight if they lose and either Golden Arrows or Cape Town City get maximum points in their clash.
Bakgaga, on the other hand, will be high on confidence despite their position at the bottom of the table, as they followed their Nedbank Cup win over Stellenbosch with a morale-boosting 1-1 draw against Mamelodi Sundowns.
Kgoloko Thobejane's charges are two points behind 14th-placed TS Galaxy and will move out of the relegation zone if they secure maximum points this evening.
Sekhukhune will be looking for revenge after they narrowly lost the first round clash 1-0 in September last year at Peter Mokaba Stadium.
