SuperSport United welcome Cape Town City FC in the DStv Premiership home encounter this weekend.

The match is scheduled for Saturday evening at the Atteridgeville's Lucas Moripe Stadium. Kick-off is at 5pm, live on SuperSport and live streaming through DStv and Showmax.

Matsatsantsa are going into this match after Bloemfontein Celtic stopped their impressive run this week in a 2-1 controversial win on the road.

The loss minimized United's chances of closing the gap by rivals and leaders Mamelodi Sundowns.

Although Matsatsantsa dropped three points, they remained on position two with the same points (28) as third-placed side Moroka Swallows.

"We put a loss behind the back of our minds and are working on regaining our confidence.  We have rectified the mistakes that happened in the previous game and are now looking forward to fighting for points," said the United defender Siyabonga Nhlapo.

A home win for coach Kaitano Tembo's boys will see them cement a place in the top three bracket of the DStv Premiership.

On the other hand, City are also fighting to consolidate a place in the top eight bracket. They are currently sitting on position six with 23 points in the bag.

This is going to be a tough battle for maximum points between the two outfits who always display entertaining football on the pitch.

"The spirit is very in the camp and the team ready for the big fight come Saturday night.

We can't settle for anything less than three points, I'm positive the team will approach this one with a positive mentality," concluded United defender Nhlapo.

The home side will rely on players such as Sipho Mbule, skipper Ronwen Williams, Bradley Grobler, Siya Nhlapo and Lucky Mohomi who netted a brilliant strike in their last league match.
