The upcoming match between Mamelodi Sundowns and Stellenbosch is predicted to be a commanding win for the Sundowns. With an impressive home winning streak, having won 24 of their last 25 home PSL matches, Sundowns are anticipated to secure victory with a 2+ goal margin. Stellenbosch, although safe from relegation, have struggled against Sundowns in past encounters, losing six of the last eight matches. Sundowns aim to capitalize on their momentum to potentially climb to the top of the league, while Stellenbosch hopes to bolster their position. Key players and lineups could influence the outcome.

Sundowns Can Go Top – Favourites for Famous Double


Sundowns are into the CAF Champions League final for the second season in a row. They have won 10 league matches in a row and will go top with a game in hand if they win this match.

After beating Stade Malien 3-2 on aggregate in the CAF quarter-finals, they won two league matches. A 4-1 home win over Chippa United was followed by a 1-0 victory at Durban City. 

Downs won 1-0 away and 1-0 at home vs Esperance in the CAF Champions League semi-finals. They allowed 28 shots over the two legs but held firm at the back.

One Loss in Ten – Stellies Safe from Relegation


Stellenbosch have taken 19 points from 10 PSL fixtures under coach Gavin Hunt. Their 31 points has them ninth in the league table and safe from the drop. 

A 1-0 home win vs AmaZulu was followed by a 0-0 draw at Siwelele and a 1-1 home draw vs TS Galaxy. A 1-1 draw at Golden Arrows preceded a 2-1 home win over Chippa United. 

Their eight-game unbeaten PSL run was ended by a 2-1 defeat at Richards Bay. Last Friday, they beat Sekhukhune United 3-1 with 2.36 xG and six big chances produced.

Mamelodi Sundowns (4-2-3-1): Williams; Mudau, Kekana, Ndamane, Modiba; Mokoena, Adams; Morena, Sales, Matthews; Rayners.
