The Premier Soccer League received a request from the South African Football Association for assistance in moving some Absa Premiership fixtures on the week and weekend ahead of the international break.
This was to give Bafana Bafana enough time to prepare for their crucial Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Libya.
Although this season has already presented many challenges to the PSL in fixture scheduling including changes necessitated by the Caf calendar changes, the League, in consultation with Member Clubs, sponsors and broadcasters, acceded to the request.
The changes will affect Absa Premiership fixtures scheduled on Friday 15 March, Saturday 16 March and Sunday 17 March 2019.
Below are the changes:
Chippa United vs Highlands Park – was on 15 March 2019, kick-off at 8pm – moved to 17 March 2019 kick-off 3:30pm – Date and time change.
Supersport United vs Kaizer Chiefs – was on 16 March 2019, kick-off 3:30pm – moved to 15 March 2019, kick-off 8pm – Date and time change.
