Sibongiseni’s picks

Having survived by a whisker when Puleng Thlolane scored in the dying minutes to save a point for Polokwane City last weekend, the Limpopo side must up their game if they are to survive relegation.

Bernard Molekwa’s side can ill-afford a defeat but will find the going tough against a Bloemfontein Celtic side who will be looking to build on their win over Ajax. What makes things even tougher for Rise and Shine is that Phunya Sele Sele are also not safe from relegation with just five points separating them from the Urban Warriors who are second from bottom.

A win will ease any worry for Vaselin Jelusic and set them up nicely to focus on their Nedbank Cup run where they are in the Last-16. For City, only a win will be a good result. But based on the way they played last weekend, Celtic should keep the three points at home.
