What is interesting about the six sides most in danger is how many games they have left against each other and the frontrunners in the title chase.
Three of Chippa’s final four games are against teams currently in the top five in the league and the other is versus Kaizer Chiefs‚ giving them a massively difficult run-in.
Black Leopards have six games remaining but must face Sundowns‚ Wits‚ Chiefs and Cape Town City‚ as well as fellow drop candidates AmaZulu and Maritzburg. The bonus for them is that four of those six games are at home in their Thohoyandou stronghold. Contrast that with Free State Stars‚ who must play four of their last six games on the road‚ and it is a decided advantage. Ea Lla Koto have claimed only eight points from 33 on their travels so far this season.
The team that finishes bottom of the league is automatically relegated to the National First Division‚ while the side that ends 15th must enter the promotion-relegation playoffs with the teams that finish second and third in the NFD.
