Teams: TS Galaxy v Stellenbosch
Date: 06 December 2020
Venue: Mbombela Stadium
TS Galaxy will be looking to maintain their unbeaten start to the season when they host Stellenbosch FC at Mbombela Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
Since gaining promotion to the DStv Premiership, Galaxy have defied the critics to secure seven points from their opening five fixtures - a recor which includes four draws and a win - and no losses.
However, Dan Malesela will be desperate for his side to claim their second win of their debut top-flight campaign, having seen them draw their last three matches, the latest a 0-0 stalemate with Golden Arrows. Meanwhile, Stellies are coming off the back of a 3-0 loss to champions Mamelodi Sundowns.
Stellies have accumulated just one point from three away matches this season, with the defeat to the Brazilians preceded by a 1-1 draw at Orlando Pirates and 1-0 loss to SuperSport United.
This will be the first top-flight league meeting between TS Galaxy and Stellenbosch. The teams encountered one another in the National First Division (now GladAfrica Championship) in 2018/19, with Stellies emerging 2-1 victors at home while the reverse fixture ended in a 1-1 draw.
The match gets underway at 15h30.
