AmaZulu are expected to have a narrow victory over Polokwane City, leveraging their strong home performance. Despite being outperformed in a recent match against Kaizer Chiefs, AmaZulu have secured a winning streak in their home games, which bodes well against Polokwane’s lackluster away form. Prediction tips include AmaZulu winning with a one-goal margin and a low-scoring match, suggesting under 1.5 goals.

Head to Head


These clubs sit a 4-4 across 16 clashes with eight draws. 

It finished 1-1 when they last met in May 2025.

AmaZulu Form & Team News


AmaZulu won their last two PSL matches to jump to fifth in the PSL table. They have won all four of their home matches in the league. 

Usuthu left Kaizer Chiefs with a fortunate 1-1 draw after being outshot 23-3. They lost 3-2 at home to Magesi in the Carling Knockout Cup. 

They’ve since won successive PSL matches. A late goal sealed a 1-0 home win over Durban City before smashing Chippa United 3-0 away from home. 

Experienced midfielder Bongani Zungu is fit after injury. Centre back Taariq Fielies could be recalled in the back three. 

Key striker Thando Ngwenya is an injury doubt. Target Elmo Kambindu is available again after a long injury. 

AmaZulu Predicted Lineup


Johnson; Allan, Mthethwa, Fielies; Radebe, Hlangabeza, Ekstein, Mbanjwa, Hanamub; Kutumela, Maqokola.

Polokwane City Form & Team News


Polokwane are poor on the road but they’re unbeaten at home. They’ve lost three of their five away PSL matches this term. 

They lost 1-0 away at struggling Orbit College before beating Sekhukhune United 1-0 at home with 35% possession. A 4-1 thrashing followed at Durban City in the Carling Knockout Cup.

After losing 1-0 at Orlando Pirates and being outshot 17-8, they drew on Saturday. Rise and Shine conceded an 86th-minute penalty to drop two points.

Coach Phuti Mohafe is without centre back Mpho Mvundela after his red card in the last match. Bulelani Nikani could take his place. 

Seketso Moremi could make just his second start for the club. He is set to be preferred to Puleng Marema in the number ten role.

Polokwane City Predicted Lineup


Bwire; Matuludi, Nkaki, Nikani, Nkwe; Kambala, Maphangule; Ramabu, Moremi, Dlamini; Tshabalala.

I'm backing AmaZulu to win at home by a one-goal margin.
