Log Leaders, Mamelodi Sundowns tackle 3rd place SuperSport United in a DSTV Premiership fixture on Monday and we take a look at the game from a betting angle.
MAMELODI SUNDOWNS
Mamelodi Sundowns have won their last 10 League matches and they currently sit top of the table 11 points ahead of their closest challenger, Richards Bay. Their last game was a 2-1 home win over Chippa United and the Chippa United goal was the first conceded by Mamelodi Sundowns in 6 matches.
Overall this season they have scored 32 goals while conceding just 6 in 16 matches. At home they have played 9 times winning 8 and losing 1 and 4 of the 9 Sundowns home games have delivered profits for over 2.5 goal backers.
SUPERSPORT UNITED
SuperSport United are 3rd on the table, but they saw their 6 match undefeated streak ended last time out when they lost 2-1 at Golden Arrows. Their last away game was a 1-0 win over Cape Town City and they have won 4 and lost 4 of their 8 matches on the road.
Looking at SuperSport United’s goal stats on their travels, 50% of their games have reached the 3 goal mark and those 8 matches have averaged 2.3 goals each

SuperSport United beat Mamelodi Sundowns 2-1 at home earlier this season and last season this fixture finished 2-2.

Mamelodi Sundowns 8/15
Draw 29/10
SuperSport United 11/2
This is a Derby game that tends to bring out the best in both sides, but on current form it really is hard to look past a Sundowns victory. SuperSport are capable of giving them a hard time and I am going to bet that Sundowns win this game by exactly 1 goal.
Suggested Bet: Handicap, Sundowns -1 the draw at 5/2
