In the last four games they have played, Tingwenyama are yet to taste a defeat. They have collected massive 10-points out of a possible 12. Their points hauling against the Cape sides started on April 14 when they were held to a 0-all draw by Cape Town All Stars at Parow Park. They went on to collect maximum points when they beat Stellenbosch FC 2-1 at KaNymazane on April 19.

That win was preceded by another big win for Mbombela as they went to beat Milano United 4-0 at their own backyard at Athlone Stadium. The last team from the Cape to feel the wrath of Aschwin Sutton charges was Santos, who received a 3-0 hammering at KaBokweni Stadium last Saturday.

Interesting to note is that on-form striker Thamsanqa Masiya and attacking midfielder Tsedisho Patjie have been instrumental in the last four games. Patjie has scored a goal in each of the last three games while Masiya has scored four goals in the last two games.
The duo are expected to continue with their good form of run in the build-up to their Mpumalanga derby against Witbank Spurs, which is penciled for Puma Rugby Stadium in Witbank on Saturday.
