Much-derided playing surface to take centre stage for Soweto derby between Swallows and Chiefs

Pitso Mosimane was so incensed with the state of the pitch at Dobsonville Stadium a few weeks ago that he called for the Soweto venue to be closed and banned from hosting top-flight matches.

“The Dobsonville pitch is not the easiest when it is wet, so the players will definitely feel it,” he said. “But it is our home game and of course we want to get the maximum points on offer, so that is what we will be going for. Truter said that the absence of the fans has had a greater effect on Amakhosi than on any other club as the multitude of screaming supporters serve as their 12th player.
