There are two midweek Absa Premiership matches taking place on Tuesday and Wednesday and we take a look at each of them from a betting angle.
TUESDAY
TS GALAXY v MAMELODI SUNDOWNS – Click here to bet
TS Galaxy are currently 12th on the table and without a victory in their last 4 games. They went down 1-0 on the road to Cape Town City last time out and that was their first defeat in 7 matches during which time they had six draws. All 7 of TS Galaxy home matches have had 2 goals or less in them and there have only been 6 goals scored in total.
Mamelodi Sundowns got their 12th successive PSL victory when they beat Chiefs 1-0 on the road last time out. 3 of their 8 away matches have delivered profits for over 2.5 goal backers and they have only conceded 3 goals on their travels this season.
TS Galaxy stunned Mamelodi Sundowns with a 1-0 victory on the road earlier in the season, Sundowns did the double last season winning both fixtures 3-0.
I was going to look at some of the Exotic Markets for this match, but I cannot believe I am getting 9/10 on Mamelodi Sundowns to get a 13th consecutive win. Yes, Galaxy beat them in the reverse fixture, but the way Sundowns are playing at the moment this price seems too big.
Suggested Bet: Mamelodi Sundowns win at 9/10
WEDNESDAY
GOLDEN ARROWS v MARUMO GALLANTS – Click here to bet
Golden Arrows are currently 13th on the table and have lost their last two games at home to Maritzburg United and away to Orlando Pirates. They have played 10 home matches this season and 30% of the games would have delivered you a profit had you backed over 2.5 goals.
Marumo Gallants are bottom of the table and have now gone 6 matches without a win and in that time they have suffered 4 defeats. Last time out they drew 1-1 at AmaZulu and 2 of their 10 away matches have reached the 3 goal mark.
These sides played to a 1-1 draw earlier in the season and Arrows won this fixture 3-1 last season.
Over 2.5 goals is trading at 33/20 and I have a feeling that we could get a few goals in this one, but in the end I am going to settle on an Arrows win and look to them to make it 3 consecutive home wins against Marumo Gallants.
Suggested Bet: Golden Arrows win at 11/8
