DUT vs Wits – Friday, 17:00, Harry Gwala Stadium
Bottom-half side DUT host second-placed Wits, who arrive full of confidence after a comprehensive 2-0 win over TUT last time out. DUT have struggled for consistency all season and sit seventh with just one win from six matches, facing a stern test against a Wits side that has lost only once all campaign.

UL vs TUT – Friday, 18:30, Oscar Mpetha Stadium
Bottom side UL, without a win in six matches, host TUT in a battle between two teams still searching for form. TUT will look to bounce back immediately after their defeat to Wits, while UL will be desperate to pick up a first win of the season on home soil.
UP-Tuks vs UJ – Friday, 18:30, Tuks Stadium
The standout fixture of the round sees third-placed UP-Tuks, who thrashed UL 3-0 last time out, host unbeaten log leaders UJ. UJ have won five of their six matches this season and boast the meanest defence in the division, having conceded just once, but UP-Tuks arrive as the division’s most potent attack with 12 goals scored, setting up a genuine top-of-the-table test.
