Golden Arrows vs Cape Town City Predictions

This match is too tight to call. Both sides are looking in good health right now and I see City making it nine unbeaten vs Arrows. I’m tipping a draw in 90 minutes with extra time required.

Golden Arrows have drawn 4 of their last 6 home matches.
Golden Arrows have drawn their last 2 matches vs Cape Town City.
Cape Town City are undefeated in their last 3 matches.
Cape Town City are undefeated in 8 matches vs Golden Arrows (4 draws).

Head to Head

Cape Town City hold a 5-3 advantage over Golden Arrows with six draws in 14 previous meetings.

City are unbeaten in the last eight meetings with four wins and four draws. The sides played out a 0-0 draw when they last met in May.

Golden Arrows Form & Team News

Arrows have had an incredible season so far and sit second in the PSL. They’ve lost just once in eight matches and have four wins in their last five.

After losing 4-0 at Mamelodi Sundowns, they bounced back to beat Polokwane City 3-2 at home. A resounding 3-0 win followed at SuperSport United before a 0-0 home draw vs Stellenbosch.

Their last two matches have yielded narrow wins. A 2-1 victory at Cape Town Spurs preceded a 1-0 win at Sekhukhune United.

Coach Mabhuti Khenyeza welcomes back Bradley Cross at left back. Captain Thabani Zuke remains out injured in defence.

Lungelo Nguse could be recalled in place of Ryan Moon up front.

Golden Arrows Predicted Lineup

Watenga; Theron, Shitolo, Mantshiyane, Cross; Ndwandwe, Dube; Tlolane, Sibiya, Van Rooi; Nguse.

Cape Town City Form & Team News

City have put a five-match losing streak behind them with seven points in their last three fixtures.

A 1-0 home loss to Sekhukhune United brought an end to an eight-match unbeaten run at home. Two more losses followed, 2-0 at Orlando Pirates and 3-2 at AmaZulu.

A 0-0 draw at TS Galaxy ended the losing run. They’ve since won successive matches, 3-1 vs Cape Town Spurs (home) and 1-0 vs Kaizer Chiefs (away).

Coach Eric Tinkler played a back five last time out. Darwin Gonzalez and Jaedin Rhodes are set for recalls with a return to a back three.

Marc Van Heerden is pushing for a recall in defence.

Cape Town City Predicted Lineup

Keet; Cupido, Gordinho, Van Heerden; Ambina, Nodada; Rhodes, Goedeman, Kutumela, Gonzalez; Mayo.

Verdict

Golden Arrows v Cape Town City

I'm backing a draw in regulation time with extra time and maybe even penalties required. I see a 1-1 correct score in 90 minutes.
