Ajax and Santos look to keep up league challenge


The ABSA Premiership is still wide open. Only three points separate the top six clubs and the difference between first and 13th is only 9 points.

So leading the log at this stage might not mean much if you stop winning. That's why every match is vital at this stage and will continue to be so until the end.

I'm predicting another thrilling finish to the league this season. Remember last season, Ajax missed out to Supersport! United by a single point after leading the log for so long.

Ajax are determined to set the record straight this season and are aware that their current position (joint top with Supersport on 22 points) means nothing if they don't keep winning.

Likewise Santos are expecting to move up the table like they did last year. Tonight they have a chance to do that when they host Amazulu at Athlone Stadium at 19h30.

The Urban Warriors are! away to Platinum Stars at 15h30, while Supersport face Bay Un! ited.
