Absa Premiership: Mpumalanga Black Aces vs. Bidvest Wits

Date: 5 April 2014

Time: 15h00

Venue: Mbombela Stadium

This season’s surprise performers Mpumalanga Black Aces will host CAF Champions League qualification chasing Wits at the Mbombela Stadium in an Absa Premiership clash on Saturday.

Clive Barker’s men come into this game on the back of an impressive 1-0 victory over Orlando Pirates on Wednesday night.

The upset win over the Buccaneers means that AmaZayoni are currently in fifth place on the log table and have been on a six game unbeaten run.

Barker will be missing Thulasizwe Mbuyane through injury after he was involved in a car accident on Thursday, but Aces will welcome back Innocent Mdledle and Omar Hendricks from injury.

Gavin Hunt’s men currently occupy third place on the Premiership table and are 11 points behind first placed Chiefs and eight points away from second placed Sundowns.

Wits come into the game on the back of a loss to Free State Stars and a draw with University of Pretoria in their last two league outings.
