Teams: Polokwane City v Ajax Cape Town
Date: 4 February 2018
Venue: Old Peter Mokaba Stadium
Polokwane will look to get back to winning ways when they host Ajax Cape Town in an Absa Premiership match at the Old Peter Mokaba Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
The match is scheduled to get underway at 19h30.
Polokwane have gone four league matches without a victory after they were held 0-0 at home by AmaZulu on January 27. It was a third successive draw for the Limpopo side and followed a 2-1 loss to Chiefs midway through the opening month of 2018.
Ajax, on the other hand, claimed just their fifth win of the season when they defeated Orlando Pirates 3-0 at home on January 31.
In head-to-head stats, Ajax and Polokwane have met in nine league matches since 2013/14. The Urban Warriors have dominated the rivalry, claiming five wins and suffering just one defeat.
When the teams met earlier this season, Ajax claimed a 2-0 home win in September thanks to a brace of goals from striker Prince Nxumalo.
