The Premier Soccer League has rescheduled the Absa Premiership fixture between Mamelodi Sundowns and Stellenbosch to Wednesday, 11 December.
However, their league encounter will now be played at Loftus Versfeld Stadium instead of Cape Town Stadium, where the match was initially scheduled to take place.
The venue change was made to accommodate Sundowns’ busy fixture schedule, which has them take on Wydad Casablanca in Morocco this weekend followed by their clash with Stellies before their much-anticipated Telkom Knockout Cup final against Maritzburg United on 14 December.
Fixture Update
Our game against Stellenbosch FC has been rescheduled back to 11 December 2019 but will now be played at Loftus Versfeld, kickoff will still be at 19:30.
