Teams: Stellenbosch v Maritzburg United
Date: 27 April 2021
Venue: Danie Craven Stadium
Stellenbosch will be desperate to revive their chances of a top eight finish in the DStv Premiership when they host Maritzburg United on Tuesday afternoon.
The match will get underway at 15h00.
Stellies are without victory in their last six matches after they were held to a 1-1 draw by Bloemfontein Celtic on Saturday, although they have only lost twice during that period.
Steve Barker's troops are lying 12th on the log with 25 points, three points behind eighth-placed Kaizer Chiefs and need to win by a margin of two goals to get into the top eight.
On the other hand, Maritzburg will be looking to get further away from the relegation zone after going two games without a win following a 1-1 draw with Baroka last Friday.
Ernst Middendorp's charges are lying in 13th spot on the log with 21 points, three points clear of the relegation play-off spot held by Chippa United and will have a chance to go six points clear with a games in hand.
The first round meeting between the sides produced four goals, as they could not be separated in a four-goal thriller in December last year at Harry Gwala Stadium.
