Mamelodi Sundowns are predicted to secure a narrow home win over Durban City in their first-ever meeting, most likely keeping another clean sheet. The Sundowns, renowned for their defensive prowess, have recorded 11 clean sheets in their last 13 PSL matches. Durban City, despite a solid start to the season, have struggled to score in recent games and face selection issues. Key action points: anticipate a tight match, watch for Sundowns' defensive strength, and expect minimal goals from Durban City.

Mamelodi Sundowns vs Durban City Predictions


I see Sundowns taking a narrow win in this fixture. Durban City will be a tough nut to crack but I’m backing a home win to zero.

  • Mamelodi Sundowns have won 10 of their last 13 PSL matches to zero.
  • Mamelodi Sundowns have kept 11 clean sheets in their last 13 PSL matches.
  • Durban City have failed to score in 2 of their last 3 matches.

Head to Head


This is the first-ever meeting between these clubs.

Mamelodi Sundowns Form & Team News


Sundowns dropped points in midweek and sit second in the PSL table. Their seven league matches have seen four wins and three draws.

A 0-0 draw at Kaizer Chiefs was followed by a 1-0 win at Stellenbosch. They won 3-0 at Magesi last weekend as they played the entire second half versus ten men. 

In midweek, Sundowns could only draw 1-1 away at Marumo Gallants. The Brazilians managed just two shots on target in the second half. 

Coach Miguel Cardoso has right back Khuliso Mudau available after off-field issues. He could make his start first of the season in this one. 

Attacking midfielder Themba Zwane is injured. Sundowns could continue with a midfield diamond in this match.

Mamelodi Sundowns Predicted Lineup


Williams; Mudau, Khoza, Cupido, Modiba; Adams, Mokoena, Allende; Sales; Rayners, Matthews.

Durban City Form & Team News


Durban City have made an excellent start to life in the top-flight. Their six fixtures have yielded 11 points under new coach Gavin Hunt. 

A 2-0 win at TS Galaxy on the opening day was followed by a 1-0 home win over Chippa United. They had 15 shots in a 1-1 home draw vs Golden Arrows before a 0-0 stalemate away at Polokwane City.

A 2-09 loss at Sekhukhune United saw two defensive howlers. They bounced back in midweek with a 2-0 home win over Siwelele as they allowed just 0.29 xG.

Terrence Mashego has signed on loan from Mamelodi Sundowns but he is ineligible against his parent club. Captain Siphamandla Ncanana is an injury doubt.

Coach Gavin Hunt is set to start Letsie Koapeng up front again after his debut goal in midweek. Joslin Kamatuka will be on the bench for this one. 

Durban City Predicted Lineup


Keet; Maphathe, Ncanana, Gcaba, Mkhize; Jurgens, Nodada; Maseko, Mokwena, Domingo; Koapeng.

Verdict

I'm backing a Sundowns win to zero. I see a 1-0 correct score in this one.
