Lastly, AmaZulu showed character as they fought back to secure a 2-1 victory over Chippa United who were leading at halftime thanks to Sinoxolo Kwayiba's goal.

Tshepang Moremi and Hendrick Ekstein netted in the second-half to earn Usuthu the win. Therefore, AmaZulu and Chippa are placed 10th, and ninth respectively in the standings.
