Galaxy suffered 2-0 defeat to Orlando Pirates seven days ago, although it was off-field matters that grabbed the headlines after owner Tim Sukazi was denied entry into Orlando Stadium
The defeat to Pirates was Galaxy's ninth of the season, the joint-highest with bottom side Baroka, as the Rockets sit in 14th place on the log, two points above the relegation zone.
Arrows, in contrast, have been much solid, as they extended their unbeaten run to six matches after playing to a goalless stalemate against Royal AM in the KwaZulu-Natal derby last weekend.
Lehlohonolo Seema's charges are lying ninth on the log with 19 points and are one of the few sides having at least three games in hand, including a game against Kaizer Chiefs that did not take place due to Covid-19 oubreak at Chiefs.
The first round clash between the sides produced four goals, as they shared the spoils in a four-goal thriller at Mbombela Stadium.
