DStv Premiership
Teams: Richards Bay v Stellenbosch
Date: 25 February 2023
Venue: King Goodwill Zwelithini Stadium
Time: 17h30
The Natal Rich Boyz made great strides in the first half of their debut campaign in the top-flight, but the team have won just one game since the turn of the year.
The KwaZulu-Natal outfit come into this evening's clash winless in their last five matches, which included a 2-0 defeat to Sekhukhune United.
Despite the poor form the top-flight debutants find themselves in fourth spot and can cement that spot with a win this evening.
On the other hand, Richards Bay come up against Stellenbosch side who have come into form at the right time of the season.
Steve Barker's charges have won their last two league games and also defeated Swallows in the Nedbank Cup a couple weeks ago.
Richards Bay did secure the spoils when these two sides met in September, Sanele Barns and Ntsikelelo Nyauza getting the goals in a 2-1 win.
