United comes into the fixture in indifferent form, having won two out of their last five, including a draw and two losses. The visitors are in far worse form, having won just two out of their last 10 matches, suffering four defeats and drawing on four occasions.

This sees Chippa sitting in 13th place on the log table with 21 points, an uncomfortable two spots above the relegation zone. SuperSport, on the other hand, is in eighth position on 30 points and will look to a victory to remain safe in the Top 8.
