Stellenbosch Form & Team News
Stellies are struggling this season after losing some key players. Their 11 matches this season have yielded just three victories.
A 1-0 home loss to Mamelodi Sundowns saw just two shots on target. A 3-0 loss to Orlando Pirates followed in the MTN8 final after leaking three goals in extra time.
Two damaging defeats followed. Stellenbosch lost 2-1 at AmaZulu before a shock 1-0 home defeat to Richards Bay on Saturday as they put up just 0.33 xG from 70% possession.
Attacking midfielder Andre De Jong is on the verge of a move to Orlando Pirates. That sale is on of many starting XI players who have departed in this transfer window.
Coach Steve Barker could ring the changes in defence. All of Omega Mdaka, Henri Stanic and Kazie Enyinnaya are pushing for recalls.
Stellenbosch Predicted Lineup
Stephens; Enyinnaya, Maloisane, Stanic, Mdaka; Khiba, Butsaka; Titus, Barns, Phili; Cupido.
Durban City Form & Team News
Durban City have made a good start since being promoted. They’ve lost two of their last three matches as their surprise factor has worn off.
After winning their first two matches, they drew 1-1 at home versus Golden Arrows with 15 shots attempted. A 0-0 draw at Polokwane City preceded a 2-0 defeat at Sekhukhune United.
A solid display led to a 2-0 home win over Siwelele. On Saturday, they were outclassed in a 3-1 loss at Mamelodi Sundowns as they allowed 11 shots on target.
Terrence Mashego is available to start at left back. He missed the last match due to being ineligible against his parent club.
Coach Gavin Hunt has to choose between Letsie Koapeng and Joslin Kamatuka up front.
Durban City Predicted Lineup
Keet; Maphathe, Ncanana, Mkhize, Mashego; Jurgens, Nodada; Maseko, Mokwena, Domingo; Koapeng.
Verdict
I see Stellenbosch getting the win they so desperately need. I'm tipping a 1-0 victory.
