Moroka Swallows vs Mamelodi Sundowns Predictions


Based on current form, Sundowns should win this match. Another narrow margin of victory is expected. I’m tipping a win to nil and a 1-0 correct score bet.

  • Moroka Swallows have failed to score in 6 of their last 7 matches vs Mamelodi Sundowns.
  • Moroka Swallows have lost 4 of their last 5 home PSL matches.
  • Mamelodi Sundowns have won 8 of their last 12 matches (4 draws).
  • Mamelodi Sundowns have kept 16 clean sheets in their last 20 matches.

Head to Head


Mamelodi Sundowns hold a 18-7 lead over Moroka Swallows across 34 meetings with 10 draws.

Sundowns won 3-0 at home when the sides last met in December.

Moroka Swallows Form & Team News


Swallows have lost twice in the last six league matches. They’re eight points clear of the drop zone with seven matches left to play.

A 0-0 draw at ten-man Kaizer Chiefs preceded a 1-1 draw at AmaZulu and 4-1 loss at home to Sekhukhune United. A poor 2-1 defeat at AmaTuks in the Nedbank Cup preceded a key 1-0 home win over Cape Town Spurs. 

A 1-1 home draw against Orlando Pirates came next. Last time out, Swallows lost 1-0 at struggling relegation rivals Richards Bay FC.

Coach Musa Nyatama could change up his starting XI. Centre back Kwanda Mngonyama is back from suspension.

Roland Sanou is pushing for a recall in midfield. Basil Mphahlele could return at right back too.

Moroka Swallows Predicted Lineup


Akpeyi; Mphahlele, Nyauza, Mngonyama, Ngqonga; Mthethwa, Sanou; Everson, Mahlonoko, Mtshali; Mhango.

Mamelodi Sundowns Form & Team News


Sundowns are 20 matches unbeaten in all competitions with just four goals leaked in that streak. Their last five matches have only seen them score three goals.

A 0-0 draw at Young Africans in the CAF Champions League first leg was followed by beating Richards Bay 1-0 at home. Sundowns beat Young Africans on penalties after the second leg finished 0-0 too.

Sundowns then won 1-0 at Cape Town Spurs after a fortunate penalty. On Friday, they beat University of Pretoria on penalties after a 1-1 draw in the Nedbank.

Defender Mosa Lebusa is injured and left back Divine Lunga is doubtful. Midfielder Bongani Zungu will play no part.

Coach Rhulani Mokwena is expected to recall Peter Shalulile up front. Thapelo Morena may drop to the bench.

Mamelodi Sundowns Predicted Lineup


Williams; Mdunyelwa, Kekana, Mvala, Modiba; Aubaas, Mokoena, Maema; Lorch; Sirino, Shalulile.

Verdict

I see Sundowns winning to zero. I'm backing a 1-0 victory for the away side.
