Magesi are just two points from safety after winning three of their last six league matches. They were winless in 11 PSL fixtures before that.
A 2-0 home win over Cape Town City ended the wait for a win. A 1-0 victory at Polokwane City and a 3-0 loss at AmaZulu followed.
A 2-1 loss at Stellenbosch was followed by a 1-0 home win over SuperSport United. Their last match brought a deserved 1-0 defeat at Kaizer Chiefs as they were outshot 17-4.
Coach Owen Da Gama will be without top striker Wonderboy Makhubu for the rest of the season. Thabang Sibanyoni is another doubt up front.
Left winger Edmore Chirambadare has suffered an injury setback and will be out for a couple more weeks.
