Since sacking their coach, Polokwane City won for the first time, assuming the 7th spot on the log. Polokwane City are not doing bad for a side that just won promotion last season, with five wins, five stalemates, and five defeats. Polokwane City have scored twelve and conceded fourteen times this season. The Orange Boys have also won twice, drawn twice, and lost three away from home since their promotion.

Over their previous nineteen meetings, Mamelodi Sundowns have won eleven while Moroka Swallows have recorded five wins and three games ending in a tie. Mamelodi Sundowns head here with their first stalemate of the season, which was due to their involvement in the CAF Champions League. On the opposing end, Polokwane City have been poor, recently winning against Chippa United on the road. The Brazilians are not happy with themselves following their performance a few days ago, and we expect an improved play here; bet on a home halftime victory for 1.79 as they have won five of their last games before the break.

This game should be able to produce more than two goals for 2.01.

Mamelodi Sundowns will definitely win in both halves for 1.72.

Good luck!
