Royal AM Seeks DStv Premiership Safety Against Moroka Swallows in Final Showdown

Royal AM faces a crucial showdown in their quest for safety in the DStv Premiership as they take on Moroka Swallows in their final match at Dobsonville Stadium. The KwaZulu-Natal team narrowly escaped the threat of relegation playoffs following a goalless draw with Chippa United last week, now aiming to secure their spot in the league.

Heading into this do-or-die match, Royal AM will be without key player Ayanda Jiyane who is suspended, adding to the tension of the encounter. With rival team Richards Bay just three points behind, the stakes are high for Thwihli Thwahla’s side.

On the other side of the pitch, Moroka Swallows will play host with hopes of wrapping up their season strongly. Despite missing out on a top-eight finish, the Birds are poised to give their all in front of the home crowd in a bid to end on a high note.

In their previous meeting, the two sides could not break the deadlock and settled for a goalless draw at Harry Gwala Stadium. Now, both teams will be looking to seize the opportunity to clinch victory in this decisive encounter at Dobsonville.

Confirmed line-ups show Moroka Swallows deploying a strong squad with the likes of T.Mbanjwa, Mphahlele, Tshanini, Sibiya, and Sanou among others. Meanwhile, Royal AM will rely on Nyame, Mahlasela, Sikakane, Ncobeni, and Shezi to deliver a solid performance to secure their spot in the DStv Premiership for the upcoming season.
