Sekhukhune United FC will aim to extend their winning streak to four matches when they travel to face Milford FC in the Premier Soccer League on Sunday, 1 November.
Their most recent result was a 3-1 victory over Richards Bay in the League Cup on 25 October, with goals from Ohizu, Tshepo Makubo and Bethuel Muzeu. The goals in that win came from Ohizu in the 53rd minute, Makubo in the 83rd, and Muzeu in the 88th. That followed a dramatic 2-1 league win against Marumo Gallants on 17 October, sealed by a late Bethuel Muzeu strike in added time after Oageng Phiri had opened the scoring. The team's recent defensive resilience, conceding just eight goals all season while scoring nine, will be tested by a Milford side that has shown it can grind out results.
Milford FC have also been performing solidly, coming into this match on the back of a 1-0 win over Golden Arrows on 17 October. That result helped them to fourth place in the table, setting up a tight contest between two of the league's in-form teams. Milford's captain, Thabo Moloi, is a doubt for the match after missing the last two training sessions with a minor hamstring strain.
With 14 points from eight games, Sekhukhune are just two points behind their upcoming opponents. A victory would see them leapfrog Milford and potentially move into the top four, though they remain nine points behind the league leaders, Mamelodi Sundowns. Key to their success has been a balanced attack, with striker Rammala their top scorer this season with two goals in seven appearances. Midfielder Linda Mntambo remains a creative hub, providing three assists in the last five matches.
The match officials have been confirmed, with Abongile Tom appointed as the center referee. Sekhukhune United's next assignment after this is another away trip, with their full fixtures schedule showing a busy period ahead. Sunday’s match kicks off at 18:00 and will be broadcast live on the league's official streaming platform.
