Last five matches: WLLDD
The Blue Army have managed just two wins in the last ten games, scoring six times while conceding twelve. Nothing extraordinary about them, as they have been playing below par. Maritzburg's previous victory was against Orlando Pirates on match day 7. However, they have failed to win in their last four games, losing twice and sharing the spoils twice.
They settled for a draw against Amazulu on matchday 11. They almost lost the game when Gabadinho gave the home side the lead; however, the home side were reduced to ten men, and they took advantage to make it (1-1).
Maritzburg have won twice, drawn once and lost two in the last five home games.
Mamelodi Sundowns (1st)
Last five games: LWWWW
The Brazilians are still struggling to win games, with their last four wins being scrappy victories. Against Chippa United, they had to wait till the 91st minute to pull off a (0-1) win. They had to rely on an own goal to win against Golden Arrows. Once again, against Amazulu, they waited until the 91st minute to secure all the points. More recently, they secured another victory at home, having found the back of the net 28th minute into the game.
These matches were against average teams, and that’s why they will always lose to a more organised team. They lost to Orlando Pirates at home a few days ago in the MTN8 semi-finals.
Mamelodi Sundowns have won twice, lost once and drawn one in the last four away games.
