SEKHUKHUNE UNITED vs MAMELODI SUNDOWNS – Click here to bet
Sekhukhune have had a solid season, winning 9, drawing 4 and losing 5 of their 18 games which puts them in 3rd overall with 31 points on the log after they recently passed Polokwane City.
Their home form has been solid with them claiming 6 wins, 2 draws and only 2 losses. After coming off a strong 4-2 win over AmaZulu on the 19th they clashed with Chippa away from home just 3 days later where they beat them 1-0 on the road.
Mamelodi Sundowns remain on a dominant run of form and with 18 matches behind them they are comfortably top of the table, sitting 12 points clear of Pirates in 2nd. They currently hold an impressive positive goal difference of 33.
They have been superb this campaign and they have lost just 1 of their last 13 matches. It is important to note, however, that both of their losses have been away from home.
The last time they took to the pitch was on Saturday when they dominated a game against TS Galaxy to win 4-1 at Loftus to make up for the loss to Galaxy a few games ago.

Head-to-Head
These teams clashed twice in the 23/24 season where Sundowns won both matches 2-1 as the favourites on both occasions. Their most recent meeting was in the league earlier this season where Sundowns hosted Sekhukhune and beat them 3-0 on home soil in November.
Betting and Verdict:
Sundowns are priced at 1.70 with the draw 3.40 and Sekhukhune at 6.00.
I think that despite Sundowns dominant win earlier on in the season, this match will be much more competitive with Sekhukhune playing at home and in good form.
There have been 3 goals in each of the last 3 head to heads between the sides and I believe Sundowns take the win once again with both teams scoring.
