King Zwelithini Stadium Soccer Match

The Betway Premiership season will see a thrilling opener as TS Galaxy gears up to face Richards Bay on Sunday afternoon at King Zwelithini Stadium. TS Galaxy, commonly known as “The Rockets,” is determined to bounce back following their recent 3-1 defeat to Stellenbosch in the MTN8 quarter-finals back in early August.

TS Galaxy, based in Mpumalanga, finished impressively in sixth place in the previous season and has fortified their squad with new additions such as Victor Letsoalo, Thamsanqa Masiya, and Siphesihle Maduna. However, they will be playing without Macbeth Mahlangu, who is suspended for this game.

Richards Bay, also known as “The Natal Rich Boyz,” will be aiming to steer clear of relegation worries after finishing 15th in the last season and narrowly maintaining their top-flight status through play-offs. The club has seen some significant changes, including the departure of Vusumuzi Vilakazi in the off-season and the reappointment of Brandon Truter as head coach.

Key signings for Richards Bay include Siyethemba Sithebe, Thabiso Kutumela, Keegan Allan, Tlakusani Mthethwa, and Thabang Sibanyoni. Both teams will have their eyes set on victory as the match kicks off at 15:00.

The confirmed line-ups for the teams are as follows: Richards Bay will begin the match with players such as Magoola, Mabue, Mcineka, Allan, Ndelu, Sithebe, and Mabuya, while TS Galaxy will feature Tape, Munyai, Seema, Kabini, Letsoenyo, and Khiba.
