Cape Town City
Cape Town is positioned in the middle of the Premier League of South Africa table. Currently, City occupies the seventh spot, with 35 points from 26 matches played. Cape Town City still has four games in hand, giving them theoretical chances for a third-place finish. The gap from the top three is 11 points. However, any drop of points in this game or a victory for the opponents would close even the theoretical chances for third place. Speaking of their form, the situation is not particularly favorable.

Moroka Swallows
A team from the lower part of the league table, Swallows has accumulated 29 points from 26 games and currently sits in the 13th position in the Premier League of South Africa. With four matches remaining until the end of the championship, they have a six-point cushion from the relegation zone, thus the battle to retain their place in the league continues. Currently, Swallows are displaying somewhat unstable results. In the previous round, they managed a narrow victory of 2-1, but prior to that, they suffered two losses and played to two draws.
