Mamelodi Sundowns and TS Galaxy have developed an intriguing contest since the Rockets arrived in the Premiership.

The Brazilians have generally enjoyed the better results, but Galaxy have demonstrated on several occasions that they are capable of upsetting one of South African football's established powerhouses.

Despite Sundowns' overall advantage, recent encounters have been closely fought. Galaxy recorded a 2-0 Nedbank Cup victory in February 2026 and followed it with a 3-2 league win in May. Sundowns responded with a dramatic 3-2 away victory in August 2026.

Mamelodi Sundowns vs TS Galaxy Head-to-Head Record

The historical figures favour Sundowns, who have collected nine wins from 15 competitive meetings. Galaxy have beaten the Pretoria-based side four times, while two fixtures have finished level. The goal difference also highlights Sundowns' superiority, with the Brazilians finding the net 27 times compared with 14 goals for the Rockets.

Sundowns' biggest victory in this fixture came in a 4-1 league success in February 2025. They have also registered several convincing 3-0 wins. Galaxy's notable results include a 1-0 league triumph in August 2022, a 2-0 Nedbank Cup victory in February 2026 and a 3-2 Premiership win in May 2026.

Of the four high-profile players who have represented both sides, Sibusiso Vilakazi and Keagan Dolly are the biggest names. Both players spent several seasons at Sundowns, winning several major honours before moving to TS Galaxy later in their careers.

Sundowns signed Gomolemo Kekana from the Rockets for an estimated R4 million, making it a record-setting fee for a 16-year-old in South African football history. In January 2026, Downs signed Khulumani Ndamane to bolster their defence.

Conclusion

Mamelodi Sundowns remain the stronger side in the historical standings, enjoying a healthy advantage in both victories and goals scored. Their consistency in this matchup has been impressive, although TS Galaxy have proved that they can produce significant upsets.

The latest results make this contest particularly interesting. Galaxy have beaten Sundowns in both league and cup competitions, while the Brazilians have shown their resilience by responding with a comeback victory in their most recent encounter.

The overall statistics still point towards Masandawana, but the Rockets have made it clear that they should never be underestimated as the fierce feud between former coaches Rhulani Mokwena and Sead Ramovic proved.
