Golden Arrows vs Cape Town City Prediction: This will be a heated one

The next round of the Carling Cup knockout competition will take place at Mpumalanga Stadium, between Golden Arrows and Cape Town City. The team that will be playing at home is on a roll coming into this match, while Cape Town City, the team that will be traveling here, are coming off a victory over Kaizer Chiefs.

Golden Arrows are currently on a winning streak, and it is to be expected that they will try their best to keep things going here. In the most recent match played in the South Africa Premier League, Golden Arrows prevailed over Sekhukhune by a score of 1-0 courtesy of a goal scored by Brandon Theron in the 29th minute of play. However, this team has been victorious in three of their last four matches. Their victories came against Polokwane, Supersport United, and Cape Town Spurs. Stellenbosch was the only team to hold them to a tie during this stretch of games. During that time period, Golden Arrows recorded nine goals while only allowing three to be scored against them.

Cape Town City recently defeated Kaizer Chiefs in a league match with a score of 1-0. Khanyisa Moyo's lone goal, which was made possible by a pass from Darwin Gonzalez, proved to be the game-winning score. However, Cape Town City have now secured two goals in a row, with one of their most recent victories coming against their rivals, Cape Town Spurs. In their previous five matches, Cape Town City have scored a total of six goals while also allowing a total of six goals to be scored against them.

Two of their most recent contests ended in two wins for Cape Town City, while the other three games were decided by draws. Seven goals were scored by Cape Town City in those matches, whereas only five were scored by Golden Arrows.

Despite the fact that both teams played their most recent league encounter with strong defensive tenacity, this one is still likely to be a long one with a number of goals scored throughout the course of it. In the meantime, Golden Arrows are the superior team in this matchup, and I believe that the home team will beat Cape Town City for the first time in this venue since 2021, thanks to the momentum they are currently riding.
