AmaZulu vs TP Mazembe Predictions

This is a huge match for AmaZulu who look in improved form of late and are defending well. TP Mazemba could be lacking match fitness after just two matches in 15 weeks. They are poor on the road and I am tipping a narrow home win.

Head to Head

This is the first ever meeting between these two teams.

AmaZulu Form

Usuthu reached this stage after beating Nyasa Big Bullets 3-2 on aggregate. After a 1-0 home defeat, they won 3-1 in Malawi to progress.

In-between those two fixtures, AmaZulu drew 0-0 at home against SuperSport United with ten men. A 2-2 draw at Golden Arrows followed before finally winning their first PSL match of the season at home to Baroka (1-0).

Their last match was a 1-1 home draw with Kaizer Chiefs. AmaZulu were dominated in the first half but it took an unfortunate injury time penalty to lead to two lost points.

AmaZulu Injuries & Team News

AmaZulu will hope to have either Thembela Sikhakhane or Kgotso Moleko available at right back after injury. Mbongeni Gumede could deputise otherwise.

Tercious Malepe could play at left back in Philani Zulu’s absence. Augustine Mulenga is pushing to start on the wing now that he is recovered from injury.

TP Mazembe Form

After winning Ligue 1 last season, TP Mazembe have won both of their league matches this term. Their last 14 matches in all competitions have seen just one defeat.

After finishing the 2020-21 league season in late June, they have played just two matches in the last 15 weeks. A 4-0 win against Sanga Balende was followed by a 1-0 win against Blessing.

Their match over the weekend was postponed to allow the team to prepare for this clash against AmaZulu.

TP Mazembe Injuries & Team News

TP Mazembe will rely on their three goalscorers from last season’s CAF Champions League once again. Forwards Joel Beya and Isaac Tshibangu will lead the line.

Tresor Mputu is a key man is midfield. Godet Masengo is the leader of the defensive line.
