AmaZulu

WLWWWL

AmaZulu will be hoping for a better result following the 0-2 Premier Division defeat last time out to Orlando Pirates.

In that match, AmaZulu managed 37% possession and 2 shots at goal with 1 of them on target. On the other side, Orlando Pirates got 18 shots at goal with 6 of them on target. Relebohile Mofokeng (16') scored for Orlando Pirates.

Under three goals per game were recorded in 5 of the last 6 fixtures where AmaZulu have been participants. With regard to the goal weighting in this period, opposing sides scored a total of 6 and AmaZulu managed a tally of 7. Despite that, it remains to be seen whether that pattern might be maintained in this upcoming game.

Their prior results show that AmaZulu:

• have not registered a win against Mamelodi Sundowns in home games against them for the last 3 league games.
• have left without a victory over Mamelodi Sundowns in their previous 7 matches in the league.

Mamelodi Sundowns

DWDWWW 📈

Mamelodi Sundowns go into this game after a 1-2 Premier Division win vs Orlando Pirates in their previous outing.

In that game, Mamelodi Sundowns had 62% possession and 8 shots on goal with 4 on target. On the other side, Orlando Pirates had 7 attempts on goal with 5 of them on target.

Over the course of 5 of the prior six games featuring Mamelodi Sundowns, a notably low volume of goals have gone in between them and opposing teams. The overall average goals scored per game in that period comes out as a mere 2, with the number of goals averaged by Sundowns equalling 1.5.

🤜🤛 Head to head

Looking over their past head to head meetings stretching back to 03/05/2023 shows that these fixtures have not been good ones for AmaZulu. They have not been able to get themselves any wins at all while Mamelodi Sundowns have been dominant against them, running out winners in 83% of those matches played.

An aggregate of 13 goals were scored between the two sides in these games, with 2 for Usuthu and 11 created by Sundowns. The average number of goals per game works out to 2.17.

🔮 Prediction

In our opinion, AmaZulu have it in them to breach the defence of this Mamelodi Sundowns outfit, however a single goal probably shouldn’t be enough to prevent defeat.

We’re going for a very close game with a 1-2 winning margin for Mamelodi Sundowns at the end of the match. It’s a very tough call.
