SMSA and their counterparts have reassured fans that the game will be incident free, with both visible and non-visible officers in and outside the precinct.
On the pitch Downs currently tops the log thanks to extra game in hand they’re in possession of. Despite heavy fixtures from local and international assignments respectively, the Mamelodi outfit is fighting tooth and nail to hold on the silverware yet once again.

The game kicks-off at 7:30pm.
