SuperSport United will be hoping to get back to winning ways when they host Richards Bay in the DStv Premiership on Sunday evening. Matsatsantsa are currently third on the table with 27 points, two points behind second-placed Richards Bay.
The Natal Rich Boyz are chasing a league double over SuperSport, after edging them 1-0 back in August last year. The Tshwane side’s ambitions to catch up to league leaders Mamelodi Sundowns were dented after back-to-back defeats against Golden Arrows and the Brazilians, in a narrow 1-0 defeat on Monday.

Meanwhile, the KwaZulu-Natal side saw their nine-game unbeaten run come to an end after a 2-0 loss to the Brazilians in early January, but bounced back to winning ways with a 2-0 win over Marumo Gallants last Saturday.
A win for Richards Bay could close the gap behind Sundowns to 14 points, while SuperSport will be hoping for a much-needed victory to revive their title ambitions. The match will take place at the Lucas Moripe Stadium on Sunday evening, with kick-off set for 18:00.
