Magesi vs Cape Town City Prediction: The home team will struggle again

Seshego Stadium will host the South Africa Premier League encounter between Magesi and Cape Town City. The two teams are coming off a winless result and will hope to do better here. Which team wins? Below, I make previews of this game and offer the best betting opportunities. 

Magesi

Magesi played Chippa United in their last league game and it ended 1-4. In that encounter, Mcedi Vandala put his team in the lead just two minutes into the game and then conceded three goals before the break. However, a 66th-minute Sinoxolo Kwayiba strike in the second half was enough to see their opponent seal the win. Heading into this game, Magesi have failed to win any of their last ten matches, losing eight and drawing two. In the league standings, Magesi sit bottom, scoring six goals and conceding 19 with just eight points from 15 matches.

Cape Town City

Cape Town City played Golden Arrows the last time out in the league and settled for a draw. In a game that ended 1-1, Cape Town City went behind before the break, but a Tsheghofatso Nyama strike in the 48th minute was enough to see them avoid a defeat. Heading into this game, Cape Town City have only one win in their last five matches, coming against Richards Bay. In that run, this team lost to TS Galaxy, Sekhukhune, and Marumo Gallants. This season, Cape Town City have accumulated 21 points from 16 matches, leaving them seated 7th in the standings.

Expert Betting Tips

While both teams are going through a tough time, their possibility of the home team taking a point in this game is the lowest. Looking at the two teams, Magesi have not shown they are ready to compete, and despite Cape Town City's recent poor play, they have excelled in many games with better performances. While the two teams should settle for a defensive play as a result of their poor attacking play, I will back Cape Town City to win.
