Sekhukhune vs Royal AM Prediction: This match can go either way

During the knockout stage of the South African Carling Cup, the match between Sekhukhune and Royal AM will take place at Peter Mokaba Stadium. In spite of the fact that neither team is playing particularly well going into this match, both of them are going to try their best to come out on top because of the significance of the game. A preview of the match and betting possibilities are provided below.

Sekhukhune - host confident of taking advantage of their turf

In their previous league meeting, Sekhukhune and Polokwane played to a goalless draw, so they come into this match hoping for a win. In the meantime, things are not looking good for the team playing at home, as they have already gone four matches without a win. In those games, Sekhukhune suffered defeats at the hands of Kaizer Chiefs and Golden Arrows; however, the CAF Confederation Cup encounter that they played against St. Eloi Lupopo was tied 1-1. The previous five matches that Sekhukhune have played have resulted in a total of three goals for them and four goals against them.

Royal AM - visiting AM hoping to avoid another defeat

Royal AM have now been defeated in two games in a row, each time by the same score of 1-0. They suffered defeats at the hands of Sekhukhune and Polokwane in those matches. The away team, on the other hand, has not been victorious in any of their previous three matches, so they will come into this one hoping to end their winless streak. In the interim, this team's last victory came in a road match against Chippa United in late August, when they prevailed 2–3. In their most recent five encounters, Royal AM has scored a total of four goals while also allowing four goals to be scored against them.

Expert Betting Tips

When you consider how the previous encounters between these two sides have concluded, you can expect this one to be decided by the slimmest of margins. The team playing at home will have the advantage of playing on their own soil, and I see them coming out on top here. As another point of consideration, considering how much emphasis should be placed on defense, there shouldn't be too many goals scored in this match.
