Cape Town City vs Stellenbosch Prediction: Both sides will be pleased with a point apiece

On Tuesday, Cape Town City will face off against Stellenbosch at the DHL Stadium. The Citizens head here without a win in three games and have a stern test ahead of their clash against a tough Stellenbosch side tomorrow.

Once again, the Citizens were below par against their opponent after sharing the spoils against Supersport United. Cape Town City scored first as usual but conceded in the 96th minute on their ground. South Africa Premier League's highest goalscorer, Erick Mayo, scored first but leveled minutes later to split points. They have picked up thirty-one points from a combined fifty-four, scoring twenty and conceding thirteen. Cape Town City have won four and lost once, drawn once at home this season, scoring eight while conceding three.

Since returning from the AFCON break, the Stellies have drawn their last two games. Stellenbosch picked up a point on their ground against Chippa United as Ismael Olivier Toure saw red. Stellenbosch settled for a share of the spoils for the second game as they went from a position of strength to conceding a goal. 

Despite that, Stellenbosch are enjoying themselves in the division after a poor start to the season, as they have won seven of their last ten matches. They have been remarkable on the road, with four wins, three draws, and two losses. 

Over their previous nine meetings, Cape Town City have won twice while Stellenbosch have won six and a game ending in a tie. Cape Town City have been below par lately, and we can’t guarantee them a win here. Ivory Coast's influential midfielder was shown a red card against Chippa United, and he’ll be a great miss for the hosts. On the other hand, Stellenbosch have been pretty decent away from home, with five undefeated runs. Stellenbosch will take the game to their opponent, and we think both sides will likely get a goal apiece for 2.07.

We expect this encounter to end in a share of the spoils for 3.24.

Cape Town City will likely get the first goal here for 1.62.

Good luck!
