TS Galaxy vs Mamelodi Sundowns Predictions


TS Galaxy have lost two of their last three at home and are struggling to score goals of late. Sundowns look in fine form and are defending excellently. They will see this as a chance to go seven points clear and I am tipping the away side to win a tight and cagey affair.

  • TS Galaxy have lost 2 of their last 3 home matches (Premier Soccer League).
  • TS Galaxy have failed to score in 2 of their last 3 home matches (Premier Soccer League).
  • Mamelodi Sundowns have won 8 of their last 12 matches (3 draws)(Premier Soccer League).
  • Mamelodi Sundowns have kept 5 clean sheets in their last 6 matches (all competitions).

Head to Head


These sides have met on just one previous occasion as Mamelodi Sundowns beat TS Galaxy 2-0 at home in December 2020.

TS Galaxy Form


TS Galaxy sit eighth in the PSL table with a three point gap and game in hand over the team below them. After an eight match unbeaten run, TS Galaxy lost four consecutive matches before consecutive league wins.

After a 2-0 loss to Maritzburg United, Galaxy lost 2-1 at Bloemfontein Celtic and 2-0 at home to TTM. A 2-1 loss at AmaZulu followed before getting back to winning ways with a 1-0 victory at Baroka.

In their last match, TS Galaxy were very solid in beating Cape Town City 1-0 at home courtesy of a goal by substitute Mxolisi Macuphu after 65 minutes.

TS Galaxy Injuries & Team News


TS Galaxy will be without Pogiso Sanoka in defence for this match due to suspension.

Coach Owen Da Gama is expected to recall goalscorer Mxolisi Macuphu and midfielders, Lindokuhle Mbatha and Mlungisi Mbunjana in midfield. All three came on at half time against Cape Town City and made a big impact.

Mamelodi Sundowns Form


Sundowns sit top of the Premier Soccer League table with a four point lead over AmaZulu with a game in hand. After a four match run without victory in all competitions, Sundowns won their last two league matches.

A 0-0 draw with title rivals AmaZulu was followed by a shock 2-1 defeat to Kaizer Chiefs after conceding two goals in two minutes in the second half. A 0-0 draw against Golden Arrows followed before a 3-0 win at Orlando Pirates thanks to three second half goals.

In their last match, Sundowns beat Maritzburg United 2-0 after a penalty by Ricardo Nascimento and goal from striker Gift Motupa.

Mamelodi Sundowns Injuries & Team News


Sundowns will be without Sphelele Mkhulise is midfield for this match due to suspension. Themba Zwane went off injured in the last match and will miss out against TS Galaxy.

Kermit Erasmus and Gaston Sirino should both return up front to boost options during the busy fixture list.
