The Cape Town versus Soweto double header in top-flight football this afternoon is blended with all the ingredients of having a strong say in the championship race - top three and top eight finish | By Mihlalibaleka IOLsport PSL
It’s been two weeks since the domestic season resumed in the Premier Soccer League . And to the delight of all stakeholders, “project restart” which commenced on August 8 has had an element of surprise on every match-day.
The Citizens are eighth on the Premiership standings with 33 points. However, such has been their resurgence that they’ve won three of their last four league matches, while the recent loss to neighbours Stellenbosch FC was due to complacency after their impressive run of form. Pirates have a sound defensive unit after merely conceding two goals in those matches but their attacking contingent has been far from their best after managing only one goal - during their 1-1 draw with Baroka FC on Tuesday night.
The Premiership leaders boast a five-point lead at the summit ahead of champions Sundowns who’ve had an underwhelming outing since the restart after drawing three league matches and losing one. Following their 3-1 defeat to Bloemfontein Celtic on Wednesday, Chiefs’ coach Ernst Middendorp reiterated that the title race will be decided on the last days of the season but he’s aware that bagging results along the way will bring them closer to the promised land.
