The Pretoria side will be aiming to settle scores with Abafana Bes'thende in a clash that promises excitement, as the KwaZulu-Natal team looks to bounce back after a disappointing weekend draw, while Masandawana remain steadfast in their title defence mission. Downs will need to win this game because if they drop points, that means they would have ceded some ground to title race rivals, Orlando Pirates.

Babina Noko will be paying a visit to the Tshwane outfit, setting up a clash that promises intensity. The last meeting between these sides saw Sundowns claim maximum points with a 2-0 win over a resilient Limpopo side. This time, both teams head into the fixture in need of points, with their eyes firmly set on the league title, currently a tightly contested race among the top four.

This is a season that has the Masandawana faithful counting down to the final whistle, hopeful that the Tshwane giants can still salvage success from what has largely felt like a campaign to forget. With frustrations mounting and fingers pointed at management and the coach, questions have swirled around team selections. However, Cardoso has set the record straight and firmly dismissed the allegations.

The tactician has been under incredible pressure as the Tshwane giants struggle to impose themselves as compared to previous seasons. Already, the Brazilians failed to win the Nedbank Cup, the Carling Knockout, and the MTN8, meaning their ambitions of lifting multiple trophies are not tenable. Masandawana's inconsistency raises more questions about whether they are competitive enough to win the PSL and CAF Champions League.
