Sekhukhune have sacked coach Lehlohonolo Seema and appointed Eric Tinkler to take charge. They sit fourth in the PSL table but their last two matches ended in defeat.

A 4-2 home win over AmaZulu ended a three-match winless streak. They won 1-0 at Chippa United before a 4-2 home defeat to Mamelodi Sundowns.

After beating Milford FC 2-1 in the Nedbank Cup, they suffered a 2-1 defeat at Richards Bay. They were outshot 16-5 in a poor performance.

Striker Andy Boyeli is a doubt due to injury. Chibuike Ohizu could another start.

New coach Eric Tinkler has not had much time to work with the players. He will hope to have key winger Keletso Makgalwa back from injury to start this one.
