Amakhosi defeated the Urban Warriors by 2-0 in the first round with Lorenzo Gordinho and George Lebese doing the damage at the Moses Mabhida Stadium back in October 2016. The win for Amakhosi followed the 2015/16 season of stalemates home and away for both teams.
Amakhosi are on the roll after recording their fifth consecutive win against a determined Highlands Park on Saturday evening in Durban. The win made it a stretch of six unbeaten games for Steve Komphela charges. Gordinho was the scorer of the solitary goal this past weekend and unfortunately have to sit out the trip to the Urban Warriors after collecting his fourth booking.
Currently Amakhosi are riding the crest of the wave sitting pretty on top of the standings with 33 points from 18 games while on the other hand Ajax is in 11th positing on the log standings with 19 points from 19 matches. Coach Stanley Menzo’s troupes will be determined to get back to winning ways aginst Amakhosi following their winless start to the year. Their last league encounter saw them walk away with their first point since the restart of the seaosn on the road to Polokwane City on Saturday.
