Teams: Chippa United v Maritzburg United

The Chilli Boys extended their winless run to eight matches after a narrow 1-0 loss to Cape Town City, with their last win coming on the opening weekend of the season when they edged Sekhukhune United.
Gavin Hunt's charges dropped to 14th on the log with six points, just a point above the relegation zone and will be wary of dropping down into the drop zone.
Maritzburg, meanwhile, ended their three-match winless streak with a narrow win over TS Galaxy but also went down 1-0 against Mamelodi Sundowns in midweek.
The Team of Choice are lying 11th on the log with ten points and will be looking to get closer to or get inside top eight positions.
The two meetings between the sides last season produced ten goals, as Chippa thrashed Maritzburg 3-1 at home and the KwaZulu-Natal side were rampant in the return fixture, hammering the Chilli Boys 5-1.
