MAMELODI SUNDOWNS
Sundowns are 12 points clear at the top of the table with 3 games in hand over 2nd placed Orlando Pirates.
They are undefeated in 17 matches this season, winning 14 and drawing 3. They were too strong for Chippa United at home last time out, winning 2-0 and in 9 home games this season they have scored 21 goals while conceding just 3.
SUPERSPORT UNITED
SuperSport United are currently 4th on the log, 13 points behind Sundowns having played 2 games more.
There recent form hasn’t been great and they are without a win in their last 4 matches and have drawn their last 3 games all ending 1-1. Last time out it was at home to AmaZulu, but previously they drew away to Cape Town City and at home to Stellenbosch.
GOAL STATS
A closer look at the teams goal stats, SuperSport United have delivered profits for over 2.5 goal backers in 9 of their 19 matches, but their last 3 games have all failed to reach the 3 goal mark. Only 7 of the 17 Sundowns matches have reached 3 goals and that is largely due to their defence as mentioned above.
HEAD-TO-HEAD
This derby match is usually closely contended, but Sundowns beat SuperSport United 2-0 in the reverse fixture in November last year. Last season they won this fixture 1-0 and SuperSport won 2-1 when they hosted.

VERDICT
It is hard to see Sundowns been beaten here, but I do think we are in for a close game and backing them to win by exactly 1 goal at 12/5 is certainly an option.
The bet which stands out for me though is under 2.5 goals at 8/10, this would have arrived in 4 of the last 5 head-to-heads across all competitions and with Sundowns defence as miserly as it is this season, it is always a runner.
Suggested Bet: Under 2.5 goals at 8/10
