Match Preview:
SuperSport United vs Polokwane City in the South African Premier League on January 17, with kickoff at 18:30 UTC.
Nine months after their last Premier League clash, which ended in a 1-1 draw, the two sides meet again in a highly anticipated encounter. Following a recent loss to Sekhukhune United, SuperSport United are determined to bounce back and secure a win in front of their fans.
Polokwane City, on the other hand, come into this match on the back of a five-game unbeaten streak, having drawn their last two matches against Sekhukhune United and Golden Arrows Durban. However, their struggles in away games—failing to score in their last three—raise concerns about their attacking efficiency.
SuperSport United:
Under Gavin Hunt’s guidance, players like Terrence Dzvukamanja and Tashreeq Morris have been instrumental in driving the attack. Morris leads the scoring charts for the team with two goals, while Ndlovu has contributed two assists. Supporting them are key players Bradley Grobler, Keanin Ayer Boya, and Maliele Pule, adding depth and versatility to the squad.
Polokwane City:
Thabang Matuludi and Bulelani Nikani have been standout performers for Polokwane City under Phuti Johnson Mohafe’s leadership. Matuludi is the team’s leading scorer with two goals, while Nkwe has contributed two assists. Additional support comes from Puleng Marema, Sibusiso Tshabalala, and Mokibelo Ramabu, who have played crucial roles in the attack.
