The Premier Soccer League log table has been updated following Friday evening’s lone fixture, as Siwelele FC and Richards Bay played out a goalless draw in a tightly contested encounter.
The result at Siwelele’s home ground means both teams continue to hover around the lower half of the standings after five matches played in the 2025/26 Betway Premiership season.
Siwelele climbed one place into 11th position with four points collected from their opening five games. Despite their promising attacking play earlier in the campaign, goals remain an issue, with Friday’s clash marking their third scoreless outing of the season.
Richards Bay, on the other hand, also moved up the table into 12th place, level on four points with Siwelele but trailing them on goal difference. Like their opponents, the Natal Rich Boyz have found it difficult to turn solid defensive performances into victories, with this result their first draw of the season.
The draw leaves both teams still searching for consistency as they aim to climb into the safety of mid-table. With the league table tightly packed in the early stages, a single victory could dramatically improve either side’s position.
At the top of the standings, Sekhukhune United remain in first place with 10 points, level with Kaizer Chiefs but ahead on goal difference, while defending champions Mamelodi Sundowns sit third with eight points.
Newly-promoted Durban City have also impressed, sitting fourth and maintaining their unbeaten run.
The weekend will see more action across the country, with Saturday and Sunday’s fixtures expected to bring further movement in the table.
Both Siwelele and Richards Bay will now look ahead to their next games in hopes of breaking away from the lower reaches of the log.
