Things are quickly moving from bad to worse in the camp of Maindis Ladies FC. The team lost all four of the Hollywoodbets Super League matches they have played to date. Their latest defeat was a 0-4 drubbing at the hands of Durban Ladies at the Old Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane last Saturday.
Apart from the fact that they are still to deposit a point into their league account, Maindis managed to score only one goal in the four games they have played.
Maindis will travel to Emalahleni on Saturday. Their match against Coal City Wizards will be played at the Puma Rugby Stadium. Not only will a win against City Wizards enhance the team's chances of escaping the relegation axe at the end of the season, but it will be a step in the right direction towards the restoration of the team's lost pride.
City Wizards and Maindis are almost in a similar situation. The Mpumalanga side are also battling to register a victory this season. Their best result was a 1-1 draw with Thunderbirds Ladies at the same venue on Saturday, 25 February.
Maindis have lost several players who were regulars in their squad last season. Whether the striking force of Maindis, marshalled by Sophy Magoro and Vutivi Sithole, will have enough strength to break the wall of City Wizards remains to be seen.
First Touch Academy will fly to Durban. Their match against Durban Ladies will be played at the Princess Magogo Stadium. City will test their strength against TUT FC at the Mahikeng Stadium in the North West.
The other weekend fixtures are: UWC FC vs Richmond United, Copper Belts vs JVW FC, University of Johannesburg FC vs Thunderbirds Ladies, TS Galaxy Queens vs Mamelodi Sundowns Ladies and Royal AM vs University of Pretoria.
