Motsepe Foundation Championship leaders Durban City will once again have PSL promotion in full view as they prepare for their next league assignment against Pretoria Callies at the Chatsworth Stadium on Friday.

Durban City became the talk of South African football in the last couple of days after the club announced that Sinamandla Zondi tragically passed away during their midweek fixture against Milford on Tuesday.

Numerous reports in local football media reported that the 22-year-old collapsed during a warm-up session and was later rushed to the hospital.

With their game against Milford suspended at the break, Durban City later confirmed that Zongi had passed away.

Nonetheless, Durban City enter their next league duty sitting in pole position with 46 points to their name after 25 matches played.

Elsewhere, the clash between Milford and Black Leopards will make for an interesting watch as the two sides prepare to clash at the Princess Magogo Stadium on Sunday.

Lidoda Duvha made a late surge up the table in the last few weeks and currently occupy third spot following a run of three consecutive victories.

Settling in a PSL promotion position seems like a viable prospect for the Limpopo side, who are now five points off the top with four games left to play.
