Tshakhuma Tsha Madzivhandila FC faces relegation, having won only two of 20 matches and conceding 14 goals in their last four. The team, second from bottom, needs wins in their final two home games to avoid dropping out of the league.

Tshakhuma Tsha Madzivhandila FC (TTM) have reason to press the panic button. With only two matches remaining to complete their league programme for the current season, they are among three teams fighting for survival.

TTM have conceded 14 goals in their last four matches. Their most recent defeat was a 5–2 loss to Tzaneen United at Nkowankowa Stadium outside Tzaneen last Saturday. The team has managed to win only two of the 20 matches played to date.

TTM are placed second from bottom on the log with 13 points, three more than Lebash Football Academy, who have a game in hand.

Despite the situation, TTM head coach Mr Lucky Nelukau remains optimistic that they will win their two remaining matches and retain their ABC Motsepe League franchise. Both fixtures will be played in front of their home crowd. TTM will host The Dolphins FC at Tshifulani Stadium on Saturday before wrapping up their league campaign with a home match against Lebash Football Academy.

The other team also fighting for survival is Nkowankowa Continentals, who beat Lebash Football Academy 2–0 last Saturday.

Mpheni Defenders were crowned Stream A champions after playing to a 1–1 draw with Baduzah Celtics at Lulekani Stadium outside Phalaborwa last Saturday.
