On the 10th of August, Chippa United and Royal AM will play a match in Port Elizabeth in a Premier League match. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 17 degrees, which will be a great treat for players. Chippa United has not played yet this season, while royal AM sits at 4th place in the tables. In their last match they recorded a 1-0 shutout win against Kaizer Chiefs. Ricardo Nascimento struck first for Royal AM in the 1st minute, and that was all the excitement the two teams could muster In the end, Kaizer Chiefs couldn’t muster any offence and Royal AM ran away with the shutout win. Royal AM is looking for direction having earned 12 points in their last 10 matches.
This will be the first match for these two teams against eachother this season. Last season Royal AM won the head to head battle with 1 win and 1 draw.
Royal AM is lucky enough to have a few offensive weapons, with Mokete Mogaila and Thikazi each having 2 goals in their last 5. Sekotlong and Riaan Hanamub are the top scorers for Chippa United in the last five matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats.
