Cape Town City vs TTM Predictions & Tips - City to make it three wins in a row

City look back to their best of late with no major injuries and their best defensive unit in place. TTM have improved of late with their fine cup run but they are poor travellers and don’t often score on the road. I am tipping a City to make it three victories in a row.

These sides have met on just one previous occasion and drew 2-2 in January.

After an eight match winless run, City are back in form with consecutive league victories. They sit seventh in the PSL table and have a seven point buffer in their battle for a top eight finish.

After losing at Orlando Pirates and at SuperSport United, City drew 1-1 with Swallows and 0-0 at Chippa. A 2-1 defeat to Stellenbosch followed before a 1-1 draw at Golden Arrows and a 0-0 draw with Baroka.

City won their last two matches as they beat SuperSport United 3-0 and won 2-1 at Kaizer Chiefs despite giving up several clear chances to Chiefs in the second half.

City are playing well and are expected to keep the starting XI from the last match. That means top scoring Mduduzi Mdantsane will have to make do with a place on the bench.

Coach Jan Olde Riekerink has no suspensions to deal with but remains without injured left back Edmilson Dove.

TTM have made it to the Nedbank Cup final but they sit 14th in the PSL table and are just two points above the relegation zone after one win in their last five league matches.

After losing 2-1 at Golden Arrows and 2-0 to AmaZulu, TTM lost 3-1 to Mamelodi Sundowns. A 2-0 won at Black Leopards followed.

In their last match, TTM reached the Nedbank Cup final after a penalty shootout as their semi-final at Mamelodi Sundowns ended 0-0 after extra time.

TTM were without winger Thabo Rakhale and left back Ndivhuwo Ravhuhali for their last match and both could miss out again. Diamond Thopola could cover for the latter.

In midfield, Tshwarelo Bereng made his debut against Sundowns as a substitute and is pushing for a starting berth with Edgar Manaka suspended.
