The GladAfrica Championship was on recess because of the Fifa international schedule, which marked the quarter period of the campaign.
It was a time for the Kaapse teams to reflect and plan how they would finish the year before the Christmas break.
Ajax Cape Town are the Cape’s real hope for championship contention, as they currently occupy second place with 13 points after seven matches played.
Cape Umoya United, who were aggressive in the transfer market have not found their rhythm as yet and as a result sit 10th on seven points after their seven matches.
Newly-promoted Steenberg United have managed to bag some maximum points to boost their chances of survival in 12th position after only six matches and six points on the board.
This weekend, Ajax will travel to Soweto to visit Swallows FC at Dobsonville Stadium on Saturday afternoon, while Cape Umoya go to Bethlehem to face Free State Stars at Goble Park the same day.
Steenberg are the only side at home, a tough assignment against Tshakhuma Tsha Madzivhandila at Athlone Stadium.
