Bloemfontein Celtic will continue their quest for a first home win of the Premiership season when they welcome Baroka FC to the Dr. Molemela Stadium on Wednesday.
Siwelele’s solitary victory of the campaign away at Platinum Stars and their poor form this season has left them hovering narrowly above the relegation zone.
To make matters worse, the 13th-placed hosts are also without a full-time coach after the exit of Serame Letsoaka on the basis of their turbulent start to the season.
Alfred Ndengane is suspended, while star goalkeeper Patrick Tignyemb remains out of favour for caretaker coaches John Maduka and Lehlohonolo Seema.
However, the club have announced the signature of former AmaZulu striker Ayanda Dlamini, but it is yet to be seen whether he will be available.
“We are facing a team with a similar style of play and ours is just to avoid conceding goals whilst using our strength to attack,” Seema told the club's official website.
“It is going to be an incredibly tough encounter knowing the type of players they have.”
Bakgaga have been in solid form of late and are unbeaten in four matches – three of which have been drawn.
Tshepo Matete is the only confirmed absentee for coach Kgoloko Thobejane.
