Opportunity for Bidvest Wits to narrow Mamelodi Sundowns leadw

Bidvest Wits will today have an opportunity of reducing Mamelodi Sundowns lead at the summit of the premiership standings to at least 6 points when they clash against the University of Pretoria today.

The Clever Boys have had a rough patch of late losing two of their last three encounters. Placed second with 36 points, Wits head into today’s encounter against University of Pretoria seeking for redemption.

The Clever Boys have picked up only one point from a possible nine in their last three encounters placing them 9 points behind log leaders Mamelodi Sundowns who top the standings with 45 points.

Despite the poor form exhibited by the Clever Boys of late, Gavin Hunt will be hoping his charges put their title challenge back on the rails by overcoming Tuks who are equally desperate for points which are critical in easing their relegation worries.
