Like Pitso Mosimane's first team, that has been unstoppable and causing havoc for PSL opponents, David Notoane's side has been impressive with their performances in the MDC.

The side is at the top of the log with seven wins from their eight games.

The weekend also offers other exciting fixtures, with SuperSport United playing against Orlando Pirates on Saturday, while Maritzburg United will come up against Kaizer Chiefs on Sunday.

The PSL has issued the Reserve League media release confirming the details of the weekend's football action.

Diski Challenge Set For Mdantsane Debut

In line with the tournament's founding promise of taking football to the people, the MultiChoice Diski Challenge is visiting another area that has been starved of top flight football for two decades now; Mdantsane in the Eastern Cape.

Mdantsane, just outside East London, is the country's second biggest township. This weekend, as the Premier Soccer League (PSL) together with partners MultiChoice, descend to the Sisa Dukashe Stadium, thousands of people in the area are expected to flock to the stadium to be part of the inaugural Diski Festival to be staged in the area.

The festival is set to take place this weekend, 03 and 04 December 2016 with two matches scheduled for Saturday and a further two on Sunday. Gates open at 09h00 on both days.

Entry into the stadium is free on both days - with a valid ticket. Tickets will be available at the stadium's ticket office on Thursday and Friday from 13h00- 18h00. They will also be available at activation points around the township: outside Mdantsane Shoprite from 16h00-18h00 on Thursday and at the Mdantsane City Mall on Friday, also from 16h00-18h00. Only two tickets will be allocated to each person per day, on a first-come-first-served basis.

This weekend's festival will be the Diski Challenge's final match day before the December recess and all clubs will be looking to finish the first half of the season on a high.

The Weekend's MDC Fixtures:

Saturday

Ajax Cape Town v Free State Stars at Ikamva Stadium from 10h00

Baroka FC v Golden Arrows at Old Peter Mokaba Stadium from 10h00

Platinum Stars v Bloemfontein Celtic at Sisa Dukashe Stadium from 11h00
