Winless in Seven Matches – Magesi Sit Bottom of the Table

Magesi sit bottom of the PSL table with just 11 points from 15 rounds of action. Coach John Maduka was fired this week and replaced by Allan Freese.

They’re winless in seven matches since then, starting with two defeats. They drew 0-0 at Chippa United and 1-1 at Marumo Gallants.

A 1-0 home loss to Sekhukhune United was followed by a 2-0 defeat away to Orlando Pirates. Their last match saw a defeat on penalties after drawing 0-0 vs first division side, Upington City.

One Win in Seven – Golden Arrows In Poor PSL Form

Arrows have dropped to 10th in the PSL table. After five wins in six matches, they’ve won just once in their last seven fixtures.

They lost 1-0 at home to AmaZulu and 1-0 away to Kaizer Chiefs to make it five straight losses. A 2-2 draw at Richards Bay as they put up 2.43 xG.

Arrows breezed into the last-16 of the Nedbank Cup. A 3-0 home win over Orbit College saw a dominant performance.

Predicted Lineups & Team News

Magesi (5-4-1): Chipezeze; Mashigo, Makgopa, Matima, L. Mokone, J. Mokone; Vandala, Masegela, Darpoh, Raphadu; Sibanyoni.

Magesi have fired coach John Maduka. They could make some changes to their XI in this match.

Newly signed left back Tshegofatso Nyama could start again. Striker Wonderboy Makhubua has departed the club in the transfer window.

Golden Arrows (3-4-3): Mbanjwa; Jiyane, Komara, Mantshiyane; Maxwele, Cisse, Dlamini, Cele; Ndlovu, Dion, Van Rooi.

Arrows have options to freshen up their side from the Cup win. Gladwin Shitolo is injured in defence.

Lungelo Dube remains absent in midfield. Lungelo Nguse is fit again to boost options up front but Sede Dion will lead the line as he chases the Golden Boot.
