Chippa United began their season with a (1-1) draw against Supersport. They took the lead in the early hour of the game; however, the home side came asking questions in the second half and finally got the equalizer in the 63rd minute.

The Chilli Boys were lucky to have remained in the division, with twenty-nine points in thirty games last season. They survived in the division because Moroka Swallows failed to win their last season game.

With how they struggled in the previous season, the management changed when they appointed a new first-team coach.
