DStv Premiership side Maritzburg United have made an official complaint to the PSL regarding Tuesday's upcoming league clash against champions-elect Mamelodi Sundowns.
While the rest of the league will all play their final league encounter on 20 May, as all matches need to be played simultaneously, The Team of Choice face Sundowns on Tuesday, due to the latter's Champions League commitments.

"Being left with two matches is not an advantage when the next game after this weekend's one is very unfair," chairman Farook Kadodia tells KickOff.
"While they gave us the alternative date as the 16th of May, they have to consider the last two games if teams are fighting relegation or for winning the cup.
"Such games have to be on the same date.
"We've sent letters to the league, but unfortunately, they haven't come back to us, I don't know if they discussed it yesterday or not.
"But it's totally unfair because the other teams will have four days to plan how to win.
"The Sundowns game might become a dead rubber."
PSL official Ronnie Schloss admitted they have received correspondence from Maritzburg.
"They [The league] have received the letter, the reason they will be playing on a different date it's because of Sundowns' commitment in Africa.
"Remember Sundowns are playing in the CAF tournament. So, they can't be back when everybody is playing."
Kick-off is at 19:30.
