Maritzburg United vs Black Leopards Predictions


Maritzburg United are in very poor form without their vocal supporters. They are conceding regular goals while Black Leopards have improved since the change in coach. The best bet is for this match to end level.

  • Maritzburg United have won 1 of their last 11 home matches (Premier Soccer League).
  • Maritzburg United have lost their last 4 matches (Premier Soccer League).
  • Maritzburg United are 11 home matches without a clean sheet (all competitions).
  • Black Leopards have lost 5 of their last 8 matches (all competitions).
  • Black Leopards have drawn 2 of their last 4 away matches (Premier Soccer League).

Head to Head


Black Leopards hold a 5-3 advantage against Maritzburg United over their previous 12 clashes with four draws.

Their last meeting was in November as Black Leopards beat Maritzburg United 1-0.

Maritzburg United Form


Maritzburg United sit bottom of the PSL table with 10 defeats in their 15 league matches.

After a poor 3-0 home defeat to TS Galaxy and 1-0 loss away to Black Leopards, Maritzburg lost 2-1 away at Golden Arrows. A 2-1 home win followed against Sekhukhune United in the Nedbank Cup.

Maritzburg then lost 1-0 at home to TTM in the league before a 3-1 defeat in their last match to Orlando Pirates at home in the Nedbank Cup. Coach Ernst Middendorp selected a weakened team in that match.

Maritzburg United Injuries & Team News


Nazeer Allie was rested in defence for the last match and will return but Kwanda Mngonyama is injured in the backline.

Ryan Rae missed the last match but is available for selection and could make his debut in midfield. Judas Moseamedi should lead the line after being given a breather against Orlando Pirates.

Black Leopards Form


Black Leopards sit 15th in the Premier Soccer League table with just two wins in their last 11 league matches. Their 27 goals conceded is the worst record in the PSL.

Black Leopards lost four home matches in a row in the PSL before winning 2-1 away at Jomo Cosmos to progress in the Nedbank Cup. They then lost 2-1 away at Baroka before a fine 2-1 away victory at Golden Arrows.

In their last match, Leopards beat a heavily rotated AmaZulu side 1-0 at home in the Nedbank Cup thanks to a goal by Mohamed Anas.

Black Leopards Injuries & Team News


Black Leopards are expected to select an unchanged team from their victory against AmaZulu. Mohamed Anas will lead the line after three goals in two matches under new coach Kosta Papic.

Fringe players in right back Tsepo Matsimibi and left back Tsheamo Mashoene have done well in the last two matches and could get another chance in the fullback positions.
