South Africa's Best Bets This Week

It’s another massive week of global sporting action, and at bets.co.za we have every major tournament covered from kick-off to final whistle.

Football - Cup Fever and Continental Clashes

It’s another busy week of football action across South Africa and abroad, with the PSL taking centre stage midweek as teams look to solidify their positions before the season break. Then, all eyes turn to the Carling Knockout Cup semi-finals this weekend, where Richards Bay face Orlando Pirates and Golden Arrows take on Marumo Gallants for a spot in the final. Expect drama, big crowds, and the kind of intensity that defines South African cup football.

On the international stage, the UEFA Champions League continues midweek, with Europe’s elite fighting for qualification ahead of the final group fixtures. The weekend brings another round of top-tier domestic football from across Europe, with headline matches from the English Premier League, Bundesliga, Serie A, and La Liga ensuring no shortage of betting opportunities. From the local cup battles to the world’s biggest club stage, it’s a week packed with football stories worth following.

Cricket - Series Momentum and World-Class Matchups

The cricket calendar is in full swing, with three major international series running simultaneously. The ODI series between Pakistan and South Africa continues to capture attention, with both teams looking to fine-tune their one-day strategies. Over in the Caribbean, the T20I series between New Zealand and the West Indies promises fast scoring and unpredictable finishes, while the Australia vs India T20 series remains a showcase of power-hitting and world-class talent.

As the year winds down, these series offer a glimpse into form and fitness ahead of a busy 2026 international schedule. Expect daily updates, match previews, and betting insights across every innings.

Rugby - International Window in Full Flight

The international rugby window continues this weekend with a full slate of Test matches across the globe. The spotlight fixture sees France host South Africa in a clash of power and precision — the reigning world champions taking on one of Europe’s most polished sides. Elsewhere, New Zealand travel to Scotland, while several other nations continue their northern tours.

We’ll also cover the lone Top 14 catch-up game in France as domestic rugby pauses briefly for the Test window. Whether it’s the brute force of the Springboks, the flair of Les Bleus, or the tactical duels across Europe, this is a must-watch weekend for rugby fans.
