Key Stats – All Signs Point to Stalemate

Magesi are winless in their last 9 matches.
Magesi have drawn 3 of their last 6 PSL matches.
Polokwane City have drawn 4 of their last 7 PSL matches.
Polokwane are undefeated in 4 of their 5 matches vs Magesi.

Head to Head – Polokwane Hold Advantage

Polokwane hold a 3-1 lead over Magesi across five clashes with one draw.

They last met in August 2026 as it finished in a 0-0 draw.

Winless in Nine Matches – Magesi In Relegation Danger

Magesi are winless in nine matches in all competitions. They sit bottom of the PSL table and are three points from safety.

After two league draws, they suffered a 1-0 home loss to Sekhukhune United. A 2-0 defeat away to

Orlando Pirates was followed by a defeat on penalties after drawing 0-0 in the Nedbank Cup vs Upington City.

A 2-0 home loss to Golden Arrows saw Magesi put up 17 shots. With new coach Allan Freese in charge, they fought hard for a 1-1 draw away at Stellenbosch having trailed 1-0.

One Loss in Seven – Polokwane Are Draw Specialists

Polokwane have lost just once in their last seven league matches (four draws, two wins). They sit seventh in the PSL table but it’s four losses in eight away PSL fixtures with just five goals scored.

A 2-1 win at Stellenbosch before the AFCON break was followed by a 1-0 loss at Durban City. A late goal conceded saw a 2-2 home draw vs struggling Orbit College.

Polokwane were outshot 27-11 with ten men in a 2-1 home loss to AmaZulu in the Nedbank Cup. Their last match saw a dull 0-0 home draw vs Siwelele.

Magesi (4-5-1): Chipezeze; Ndlozi, Buthelezi, Makgopa, J. Mokone; Raphadu, Darpoh, Mtshali, Vandala, Chirambadare; Sibanyoni.

Kgomotso Mosadi is suspended in attack. Fellow forward Thabang Sibanyoni is an injury doubt.

Polokwane City (4-2-3-1): Mathebula; Matuludi, Mvundlela, Nkaki, Nkwe; Kambala, Maphangule; Sebone, Mnguni, Tshabalala; Tshikweta.
