Betway Premiership: Six lower table teams eye first wins of 2026/27 season

TS Galaxy [10th], Durban City [12th], Chippa United [13th], Kruger United [14th], Siwelele FC [15th] and last placed Marumo Gallants will be in action on Tuesday evening and targeting their first victories of the new season following their early struggles.

Kruger United eye first top-flight scalp against goal shy Durban City

Kruger United head into the fixture after losing to ten-man fellow top-flight newcomers Milford FC in their last league clash, while Durban City played to a 1-1 draw in their KwaZulu-Natal derby against Richards Bay.

The two sides will be meeting for the first time in the Premier Soccer League and a victory for the Village Boys will see them jump above City on the Betway Premiership table.

Siwelele, Chippa look to bounce back from defeat

Siwelele go into the fixture having lost their last two consecutive league matches without scoring a goal, meanwhile Chippa suffered a 3-0 defeat to Orlando Pirates in their last game after having played out two draws.

The home side Siwelele will be hoping to continue their unbeaten run against the Chilli Boys, having drawn once at home last November and won the last previous clash between the two teams.

A win for the Bloemfontein based outfit will see them leapfrog Chippa on the log.

Struggling Gallants face tricky TS Galaxy test

Bottom of the table Marumo Gallants will take on an unpredictable TS Galaxy side which has scored four goals but conceded five in their first three matches of the 2026/27 season.

Bahlabane Ba Ntwa head into the clash on the back of two successive defeats to Stellenbosch and Mamelodi Sundowns following the matchday one draw against newcomers Kruger United.

Meanwhile, The Rockets drew their last match against a Golden Arrows side that is yet to concede this season.

The two sides have met on eight previous occasions in the league, with Gallants dominating with three wins, three draws and only one loss against TS Galaxy, which came in the first round of the last campaign
