The Brazilians will be without defender Abdelmounaim Boutouil, who is suspended due to the accumulation of yellow cards.
Polokwane, meanwhile, will be looking to build on their relatively good start after getting two wins from their four matches so far after they got back in the Premiership following a three-year absence.
City, however, after back-to-back wins were edged 3-2 by Arrows this past weekend and are placed sixth on the table with six points from four matches.
