STELLENBOSCH FC have become nomads again, relocating their home matches to Cape Town, starting with their Betway Premiership encounter today against Lamontville Golden Arrows.

- HERMAN GIBBS

Playing home games away isn’t uncharted territory for Stellenbosch. During their debut season in the 2019/20 top flight, they played all their matches away from home due to the absence of suitable venues in Stellenbosch.

Last season was similar, with their home games hosted at Athlone and venues in Durban.

The Danie Craven Stadium in Stellenbosch is being renovated in preparation for the 2026 FISU World University Championship Rugby Sevens next September.

After returning from Saturday's CAF clash with Equatorial Guinea's 15 de Agosto de Akonibe, Stellenbosch shift their focus back to domestic action, eager to secure three crucial points against Golden Arrows.

This match will be the 13th time these two teams have crossed paths across all competitions.
