Marumo Gallants - Kruger United: Match preview
Marumo Gallants are only just beginning their campaign in this season's Betway Championship, and this will be their first match of the season. Last season, the team managed to stay in South Africa's top division, although it was extremely difficult. They collected 25 points over 30 rounds and finished 14th, just one point ahead of the 15th-placed team, which was relegated from the division. This season, they will try to do everything possible to avoid finding themselves in the same situation again.
Kruger United are a team that played very good football last season and managed to win South Africa's second-tier division. The team collected 62 points from 30 matches, finished eight points clear of second place and earned promotion to the Betway Championship. They have also already begun the new season, facing Kaizer Chiefs. Unfortunately, their first outing did not go to plan, as Kruger United suffered a 1-3 defeat. Their task for this season is clear – to stay in the top flight.
