DStv Premiership
Teams: Chippa United v Swallows FC
Date: 26 February 2023
Venue: Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium
Time: 15h30
Swallows have been battling for form, with only one win in their last five matches and will be looking to bounce back after a 2-0 loss to Cape Town City a week ago.
Ernst Middendorp's charges are languishing third-from-bottom and are just above the relegation zone on goal difference and three points behind 13th-placed Chippa United.
The Chilli Boys, meanwhile, saw their three-game unbeaten run come to an end after a 2-1 loss to Stellenbosch three weeks ago.
A win for Morgan Mammila's men will take them six points clear of the relegation zone and rivals for survival the Birds.
Swallows, however, are chasing a league double over Chippa after they won the reverse 2-0 thanks to goals from Mbulelo Wambi and Kagiso Malinga last month.
Here's how they line up:
Chippa United: 1. Kazapua, 20. Mathiane, 24. Konqobe, 14. Mkhize, 7. Mbenyane, 28. Lebtiso, 2. Mdunyelwa, 3. Ntsabo, 37. Ighodaro, 17. Maarman, 4. Banda
Subs: 32. Nwabali, 6. Poggenpoel, 11. Mayo, 33. Chabalala, 36. Luthuli, 26. Maphangula, 15. Pfumbidzai, 25. Kammies, 29. Kambindu
