Swallows FC will be hoping to get back to winning ways when they take on Chippa United in their DStv Premiership clash at Dobsonville Stadium this evening.
Ernst Middendorp’s side have lost their opening two games in the league, against Richards Bay FC and Mamelodi Sundowns, and currently sit 15th on the standings. A win against Chippa could take them up to 12th place.
The Chilli Boys, meanwhile, are looking to end a three-game winless streak in the league. Last weekend, they drew 1-1 with Stellenbosch FC, with Azola Matrose’s goal cancelling out Junior Mendieta’s strike for Stellies.
