In the upcoming match between Marumo Gallants and Kaizer Chiefs, the Chiefs are anticipated to secure a victory through their robust defense, as evidenced by a streak of clean sheets and losses by Gallants in their recent matches. The Chiefs boast an impressive record of four consecutive clean sheets and only one defeat in the past 15 matches. Gallants, on the other hand, have been struggling, having lost four out of their last seven games. With head-to-head encounters slightly favoring the Chiefs, and the Gallants faltering in performance, a narrow 1-0 win for the Chiefs is predicted.

Marumo Gallants Struggling – Four Losses in Last Seven


Gallants have won just twice in their last 17 fixtures in all competitions. Their last 13 matches in all competitions have seen eight draws and they sit 12th in the PSL table. 

A 1-0 defeat at Durban City was followed by progression in the Carling Knockout cup after a 2-2 draw at Golden Arrows. Two home draws followed, versus Sekhukhune United and Magesi.

A 1-0 loss to Orlando Pirates followed in the Carling Knockout Cup final. Last Wednesday, they allowed 2.41 xG in a 2-0 loss away to TS Galaxy.

They beat Golden Arrows 1-0 at home before a 1-0 win away to Zesco United on Saturday. Chiefs had just 3% possession and scored from their only shot on target.

Predicted Lineups & Team News


Marumo Gallants (4-2-3-1): Arubi; Ncube, Sikhosane, Agnikoi, Ntsabo; Bance, Nhlapo, Mphambaniso; Mabuza, Ndlondlo, Otladisa.

Coach Alexandre Lafitte has seen two key players depart in the transfer window. Defender Mpho Chabatsane and winger Daniel Msendami have been sold to Orlando Pirates. 

Azola Ntsabo has been signed from Chippa United to replace Chabatsane. Former AmaZulu winger Msindisi Kunene has also been recruited. 

Kaizer Chiefs (4-2-3-1): Petersen; Monyane, Kwinika, Miguel, Mako; Maboe, Ndlovu; Vilakazi, Shabalala, Lilepo; Mayo.

I see Chiefs taking the win with a clean sheet.
