Mamelodi Sundowns vs Marumo Gallants Predictions - Brazilians to batter Bahlabane Ba Ntwa

Mamelodi Sundowns are strong favourites to defeat Marumo Gallants in their upcoming PSL clash. With Sundowns winning 17 of their last 18 home games by 2+ goals, and keeping plenty of clean sheets, all indications point to a comfortable victory. Gallants have struggled away, losing to nil in 3 of their last 5 road games and with a poor record against Sundowns. Key Sundowns players Themba Zwane and Mothobi Mvala remain sidelined, but new signing Nuno Santos strengthens their midfield. Expect Sundowns to win by at least two goals without conceding.

Head to Head


Mamelodi Sundowns hold a 9-1 lead across 13 clashes with three draws.

The clubs met in September 2025 as they played out a 1-1 draw.

Mamelodi Sundowns Form & Team News


Sundowns have returned to the top of the PSL table. Their form has been inconsistent on their travels, but they are imperious on home turf. 

A 0-0 draw at Kaizer Chiefs saw a poor performance. A 1-0 win at Stellenbosch and a 3-0 win over Magesi followed as they faced ten men for the entire second half. 

After a 1-1 draw at Marumo Gallants, they beat Durban City 3-1 at home. A 1-0 loss at Golden Arrows was followed by a dominant 4-1 home win over Richards Bay to highlight their swings in form. 

Coach Miguel Cardoso is without key attacking midfielder Themba Zwane and centre back Mothobi Mvala. Left-footed winger Kutlwano Letlhaku is on duty at the Under-20 World Cup. 

Newly signed Portuguese midfielder Nuno Santos is set to start again. Fellow Portuguese playmaker Miguel Reisinho could be on the bench for the first time. 

Mamelodi Sundowns Predicted Lineup


Williams; Mudau, Khoza, Lebusa, Modiba; Mokoena, Allende; Sales, Santos; Rayners, Matthews.

Marumo Gallants Form & Team News


Gallants have played well in the big games this season. Their away form is a major concern, though with three losses in the last five on their travels. 

They played out two 1-1 home draws, vs Polokwane City and Mamelodi Sundowns. Two 1-1 stalemates followed on the road, away at Orbit College and Kaizer Chiefs. 

Their last match saw a defeat to struggling Siwelele. A 1-0 away loss saw them allow just five shots to their opponents. 

Marumo Gallants hope to have new signing Katlego Otladisa available. The winger is lacking match fitness. 

Coach Alexandre Lafitte may consider handing Jaisen Clifford a start on the flank. He has scored versus both Orlando Pirates and Kaizer Chiefs this season.

Marumo Gallants Predicted Lineup


Arubi; Ncube, Sikhosane, Chabatsane, Mabotja; Nhlapo, Sithole, Mphambaniso; Mabuza, Ndlondlo, Msendami.
