With the PSL’s Promotion/Relegation Play-Offs in full swing, the next match will see the University of Pretoria welcome Swallows FC to the Tuks ABSA Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

Tlisane Motaung and Dylan Kerr will both be boosted by the fact that they’ll have all their players fully fit for their upcoming match with no injuries or suspensions to report in both cames.
