The upcoming match between Sekhukhune United and Marumo Gallants is predicted to end in a 1-1 draw. Sekhukhune, without their top striker, might struggle to secure a win, while Marumo Gallants have shown signs of improvement in recent games. Key stats point to a likely draw, considering Sekhukhune's home records and Marumo's recent performances. Previous head-to-head encounters slightly favor Sekhukhune, but both teams have had challenges securing wins lately, setting the stage for a balanced contest.

Sekhukhune United vs Marumo Gallants Predictions


I see this ending in a draw. Marumo are showing improvement and face a Sekhuhkune side without their best striker. My tip is a 1-1 draw.

Key Stats – Draw on the Cards


  • Sekhukhune United have drawn 5 of their last 9 home matches.
  • Sekhukhune United have seen Under 2.5 goals in their last 14 home matches.
  • Marumo Gallants have drawn their last 2 matches.

Head to Head – Sekhukhune Edge It


Sekhukhune hold a 3-2 advantage across seven previous clashes with two draws.

The clubs played out a 1-1 draw when they last met in December.

One Win in Eight – Sekhukhune In Poor Form


Babina Noko’s last eight matches in all competitions have seen just one goal. Coach Eric Tinkler was sacked before the last match with Paulus Masehe taking over as caretaker coach.

A 0-0 home draw vs Polokwane City was followed by a 1-0 loss at Golden Arrows. They drew 2-2 at AmaZulu after outshooting the hosts 21-8 in a fine performance. 

A 96th-minute winner saw them beat Magesi 1-0 at home. After the coach was fired, they lost 3-1 away at Stellenbosch in their last match. 

Marumo in Freefall – One Win in 17 Matches


Marumo have tasted victory just once in 17 fixtures. They’ve shown signs of life by drawing their last two matches. 

A surprise 3-1 win at Chippa United was followed by a 2-1 home loss to Golden Arrows with ten men. They lost 3-1 at Mamelodi Sundowns and were thumped 3-0 at bottom-placed Magesi.

Their last two fixtures have been stalemates. They drew 0-0 at home with struggling Orbit College and 0-0 at home to ten-man Siwelele.

Predicted Lineups & Team News


Sekhukhune United (4-2-3-1): Nsabata; Mashiloane, Yamba, Coetzee, Letlapa; Mkhize, Monare; Rammala, Mncube, Makgalwa; Ndlovu.

Sekhukhune are without key striker Bradley Grobler. Centre back Bright Ndlovu could play up front in preference to natural striker Lehlohonolo Mojela.

Rivaldo Coetzee is set to start in defence. Toaster Nsabata is tipped to replace the error-prone Renaldo Leaner in goal.

Marumo Gallants (4-3-3): Arubi; Ncube, Rikhotso, Nhlapo, Mabotja; Sithole, Bance, Manaka; Mabuza, Marou, Ndlondlo

Caretaker coach Trevor Mathiane has doubts over wingers Jaisen Clifford and Katlego Otladisa. 

Tsepo Rikhotso has come into the XI to solidify the defence. Mathew Marou could play up front with Philip Ndlondlo moving back into a midfield role. 

Verdict

I'm backing a draw in this one.
