Absa Premiership
Teams: Cape Town City v Maritzburg United
Date: 23 February 2019
Venue: Athlone Stadium
Time: 15h30
There will be a reunion for Eric Tinkler at the Athlone Stadium as his Maritzburg United take on Cape Town City this afternoon.
The Team of Choice still find themselves rooted to the foot of the standings, despite claiming a 3-1 win over Polokwane City two weeks ago.
The victory was Maritzburg's maiden home win of the Absa Premiership season, while it was also the first time the team netted three goals in a game this campaign.
The Citizens, meanwhile, will look to get their title charge back on track after they suffered a 1-0 defeat to AmaZulu in their last league encounter two weeks ago.
As a result, Benni McCarthy's troops find themselves in fifth position, seven points adrift of league leaders Bidvest Wits.
City suffered a big blow during the week as star midfield duo Thabo Nodada and Roland Putsche have been ruled out for the rest of the season.
Here's how they line up:
City: 1. Leeuwenburgh, 2. Mkhize, 12. Fielies, 15. Cupido, 6. Seedat, 7. Links, 8. Modise, 11. Ralani, 21. Mokeke, 30. Martin, 33. Erasmus.
Subs: 16. Stephens, 5. Edmilson, 17. Norodien, 9. Rusike, 25. Mthembu, 28. Kewuti, 45. Mngonyama.
Maritzburg: 31. Ofori, 36. Kunene, 25. Xulu, 23. De Reuck, 2. Onyango, 11. Makaringe, 24. Timm, 20. Kutumela, 8. Ndlovu, 22. Mokate, 26. Shandu.
Subs: 1. Mpandle, 4. Allie, 15. Matsi, 44. Zakri, 13. Kateregga, 19. Moseamedi, 28. Mekoa.
