Match Preview
TS Galaxy had a poor start to the new campaign and only managed to secure their first Premier League victory in late autumn. That win came in an away match against Sekhukhune, helping them escape the relegation zone. Moreover, it marked the beginning of an unbeaten streak that now extends to 10 matches across all competitions.
Their latest success came last weekend when they hosted Cape Town City. TS Galaxy scored twice by the 44th minute and comfortably saw out the match. Before that, they played two consecutive draws—1-1 away to Golden Arrows and 0-0 at home against Magesi. Currently, TS Galaxy sits 10th in the league table with 18 points.
Meanwhile, Polokwane City started the new season strongly. At the moment, they are only two points behind second-placed Orlando Pirates, though the Pirates have three games in hand. However, league leaders Mamelodi Sundowns have already built an eight-point gap.
In their last match, Polokwane hosted Chippa United and secured a narrow 1-0 victory. This was their second consecutive win and third in the last five league fixtures. However, their away form is not particularly impressive, with three wins and three losses in seven matches.
