SuperSport United vs Royal AM Predictions

SuperSport have had some poor results of late due to absentees in defence. They face a Royal AM side that rarely scores goals and who tends to leak goals on the road. I’m backing a home win to nil.

Royal AM Predicted Lineup

SuperSport United have won 9 of their last 11 home PSL matches.
SuperSport United have seen BTTS No in 6 of their last 7 home matches (5 clean sheets).
Royal AM have lost their last 3 matches.
Royal AM have failed to score in their last 4 matches.

Head to Head

Royal AM hold a 2-1 advantage across four previous meetings between these sides with one draw.

They last met in February and played out a 1-1 draw.

SuperSport United Form & Team News

SuperSport are in very inconsistent form of late. Their last five domestic matches have seen three losses with plenty of goals conceded.

A 3-0 loss at home to a ruthless Golden Arrows preceded a 1-1 draw at Gaborone United and a 1-0 victory over Kaizer Chiefs. A 1-0 loss at Chippa United was followed by a 3-0 home win over Gaborone United (4-1 aggregate).

A late goal sealed a 2-1 win at bottom dwellers Cape Town Spurs. On Sunday, they lost 4-1 at home to exit the Carling Knockout Cup.

Centre back Thulani Hlatshwayo is back from suspension to solidify a leaky defence. Right back Kegan Johannes doubtful.

Siphesihle Ndlovu is injured in central midfield. None of his replacements have stepped up in his absence.

SuperSport United Predicted Lineup

Goss; Okon, Hlatshwayo, Xulu; Lungu, Margeman, Moralo, Lakay, Pfumbidzai; Grobler, Dzvukamanja.

Royal AM Form & Team News

Royal AM have won just twice in their last 15 matches across all competitions. Their last 25 away matches have seen just two clean sheets.

A nine-match winless run was ended by successive victories: 1-0 vs TS Galaxy (home) and 3-2 at Chippa United. A determined 0-0 draw at Kaizer Chiefs has been followed by three 1-0 defeats on the bounce.

A home defeat to Sekhukhune United preceded a loss at Polokwane City. On Saturday, they were eliminated from the Carling Knockout Cup after a 1-0 loss at Sekhukhune.

Coach John Maduka has an injury doubt over defender Sikhetele Mabuza available again in defence. Lesego Manganyi is another concern in the backline.

Mfundo Thikazi and Mxolisi Macuphu are pushing for recalls in the front three.

Royal AM Predicted Lineup

Ngcobo; Mabuza, Jiyane, Manganyi; Mogaila, Dlamini, Mahlasela, Matlaba; Cele, Macuphu, Thikazi.

Verdict

I'm backing SuperSport to bounce back in this match. A home win and a victory to nil are my tips for this PSL clash.
