Both teams will eye a win in the game as neither of the two Kwa-Zulu Natal teams is in particularly good form. In the end, I expect a 1-1 draw as they will cancel out each others energy.
Anytime Goal Scorers
Maritzburg United- Friday Samu- Samu was the man of the match in the Team of Choice’s 2-1 win over SuperSport United. He will be expected to play a key role for Ernst Middendorp’s side for the rest of the season especially after Bongokuhle Hlongwane left them to join Minnesota United in January.
Golden Arrows- Michael Gumede- Gumede has a habit of finding a goal out of nowhere. He may not be the most naturally gifted footballer but is capable of punishing Maritzburg United on the transition.
