AmaZulu could complete a historic week which paves way for their maiden entrance into continental club football just days after their reserve team won the DStv Diski Challenge Rewired title.
Usuthu have provided a sizeable share of the thrills in this league this season which explains why they have surged into unfamiliar territory in second place.
The next fixture against Swallows at Jonsson Kings Park on Wednesday will carry its worth in the prize of Champions League football as three points will mean Usuthu don't even need to look over their shoulders anymore in securing second place.
Both Golden Arrows and Orlando – in third and fourth place respectively – can only reach a maximum of 52 points, which will be less than what AmaZulu will reach with one more win from their last two games.
Usuthu travel to Maritzburg United on Saturday to complete what has been their best season ever.
Since Benni McCarthy took over at the club in December last year, the Durban club has been cruising taking 44 points from 66 available to play for.

That has seen them rise from the bottom half place where they sat with six points from six games when McCarthy took over into the highs of even providing a sense of discomfort to Mamelodi Sundowns in recent weeks.
They even tasted top place, albeit for hours.
In finishing second and securing passage into the CAF Champions League, the Durban club will also finish with their highest points tally ever.
Through the PSL era years, AmaZulu have been perennial strugglers with the best finish they have ever achieved being a seventh-place finish while the highest points that they have reached before was 42.
AmaZulu have never played continental football before.
