Magesi vs Polokwane Prediction: Polokwane to extend their dominance in this fixture

Old Peter Mokaba Stadium will host the South Africa Premier League game between Magesi and Polokwane. The last time these two teams played, Polokwane won on the road in a 0-2 encounter. How will this encounter unfold?

Magesi opened their league with a defeat to Sekhukhune and will hope for a better result. Magesi had 54 percent of the possession in that fixture but could only attempt one shot that was not on target. In the meantime, Magesi's last matches into this week's 2 South Africa Premier League games saw them win two, draw two and lose one. 

Polokwane started their 2024/2025 South Africa Premier League season with a win over AmaZulu, and the road team will hope for a similar result in this one. Polokwane had to come from behind in that fixture to take maximum points, thanks to Bulelani Nikani and Tholo Matuludi's strikes. In the meantime, a look at Polokwane's last matches into this match saw them win two, draw two, and lose one. 

Magesi are yet to get things right in the top flight, and it is difficult to back them here. While I believe the experience will be one of the crucial things to consider in this fixture, Polokwane are on a higher level compared to Magesi. Also, with a dominant performance in the last meetings of this fixture, I am backing Polokwane to win 0-2 in this game.
