Chippa United
Last season, Chippa United finished in eleventh place in the league standings, just four points above the relegation zone. This season has also gotten off to a very poor start for the club. Chippa United have not recorded a single win in five rounds. After drawing with Mamelodi Sundowns in their opener, they lost the next four matches, failing to score in three of them. As a result, their winless streak, which began last season, has now stretched to 12 consecutive matches without a victory. They currently sit at the bottom of the table with just one point.
Their home form has also been disappointing: in their last five matches on home soil, Chippa United have not won, suffering three defeats and two draws. As for head-to-head meetings with Orbit College, this will be the first-ever encounter between the two sides, adding extra intrigue and motivation for both teams.
Orbit College
Orbit College are newcomers to the Premier League. Last season, they finished second in the Championship and earned promotion through the playoffs, overcoming two other teams—Casric Stars and Cape Town City. Their debut in the Premier League has been anything but easy. In five matches, they have suffered four defeats, but did manage a narrow 1-0 home win over Sivelele. The team has lost their last three matches, failing to score in two of them. At the moment, Orbit College are just one spot above Chippa United, with three points to their name.
