The Premier Soccer League has finally released the fixtures for the start of the 2024-25 Betway Premiership, with the Tshwane derby set to kick off the league season on September 14.
Mamelodi Sundowns will host SuperSport United at Loftus Versfeld that Saturday in one of two (3pm) games that will get the Premiership under way. The other sees Royal AM host Cape Town City at Harry Gwala Stadium in Pietermaritzburg.

Kaizer Chiefs are away to Marumo Gallants, who have bought the top flight status of Moroka Swallows, at Free State Stadium, also at 5.30pm on the opening day.
The first Soweto derby, the most-watched fixture of the calendar, takes place when Pirates are βat homeβ to Chiefs on February 1 at FNB Stadium.
The second Soweto derby sees Chiefs host Pirates at FNB on May 3 next year.
The league ends on May 24 where notable matches include Pirates being away to AmaZulu at Moses Mabhida Stadium, Sundowns travelling to play Chippa United at Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium and Chiefs hosting Polokwane City at FNB Stadium.
The Nedbank Cup final, which normally concludes the domestic season, has been scheduled for May 10.
Delays to the announcement of the league fixtures are believed to have stemmed from Betway coming on board late in the off-season as a new sponsor to replace DStv, which ended its deal a year early, and the Confederation of African Football delay in providing dates for its internationals and club competitions.
