Stellenbosch vs Polokwane City Predictions


The hosts are in top form and are on a long unbeaten streak. Polokwane City are stuttering after a strong start to the season. I can only see a home win with a clean sheet by a good margin.

  • Stellenbosch have won 4 of their last 7 home PSL matches (3 draws).
  • Stellenbosch have kept 3 clean sheets in their last 5 home PSL matches.
  • Polokwane City have lost 2 of their last 4 away matches. 
  • Polokwane City have conceded 6 goals in their last 3 matches.

Head to Head


Stellies hold a 7-2 advantage over Polokwane City across nine previous meetings.

The sides last played in 2020 as Stellenbosch won 1-0 at home.

Stellenbosch Form & Team News


Stellies are in outstanding form. They sit second in the PSL and are 23 matches unbeaten in all competitions.

After winning 1-0 at Kaizer Chiefs, they drew 0-0 at home vs Sekhukhune United. A 4-0 home Nedbank Cup win over SuperSport United preceded a 1-1 draw away to Sekhukhune. 

In midweek, they came from 1-0 down to beat TS Galaxy 2-1 away from home. 

Stellenbosch may make just one change to their starting XI. 

Sihle Nduli is suspended so Genino Palace could replace him. 

Stellenbosch Predicted Lineup


Stephens; Van Rooyen, Toure, Maloisane, Basadien; Adams, Palace; Titus, De Jong, Oura; Rayners.

Polokwane City Form & Team News


Polokwane have tasted victory just once in the last eight matches. They sit 11th in the PSL table, just two points above 13th-placed AmaZulu.

A 1-0 home win over Chippa United preceded a determined 0-0 draw away at AmaZulu. After conceding two late strikes to lose 3-2 away at Royal AM, they threw away 1-0 lead at ten-man SuperSport United to draw 1-1.

Their last match saw another lead surrendered. They led 2-0 at home to Cape Town City but drew 2-2 by full time.

Coach Phuti Mohafe has Tholo Matuludi available at right back after suspension. Ndamulelo Maphangule is also at the coach’s disposal after a ban.

Puleng Marema is injured in attack and Cole Alexander remains a doubt in midfield. 

Polokwane City Predicted Lineup


Sapunga; Matuludi, Nikani, Nkaki, Ndlovu; Ramabu, Mashikinya, Kambala, Maphangule, Appollis; Mapfumo.

Verdict

Stellenbosch should have far too much for Polokwane City in this match. I see them beating the -1 handicap.
