AmaZulu will look to take revenge and leapfrog Sekhukhune United as the two sides face off in a Betway Premiership clash at the Old Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane tomorrow evening.

Kick-off is at 19:30 CAT

Sekhukhune, who sit fifth on the Betway Premiership log, walked away with three points when they last faced Usuthu on the eighth of January at King Zwelithini Stadium.

AmaZulu, who are currently seventh in the Betway Premiership, trail Sekhukhune by only two points, although Babina Nako have a game in hand.

Usuthu look to continue their fine run of form, having taken seven out of a maximum nine points from their last three games, and extend their unbeaten run to four games in the league.

Sekhukhune have not won in their last four league matches, registering two draws and two losses.

Despite a disappointing exit in the Nedbank Cup round of 16 at the hands of Marumo Gallants FC, AmaZulu co-head coach Vusumuzi Vilakazi praised his side’s effort and expressed his pride in co-head coach Arthur Zwane, saying, “They were working very hard”.

Usuthu will look to carry this effort and heat forward into tomorrow evening’s clash.
