In contrast, Sekhukhune United has struggled for consistency, having lost their last match against Chippa United. Their defense has been a concern, often leaving gaps that opponents can exploit.
What to Expect:
With home advantage, Royal AM will aim to capitalize on their attacking strengths. Look for players like Victor Letsoalo to make an impact. Sekhukhune will need a solid performance from their defense, particularly against Royal AM’s speed on the flanks.

Marumo Gallants vs. TS Galaxy
Current Form:

What to Expect:
Gallants will look to secure their first home win of the season, but Galaxy’s resilience and ability to grind out results may frustrate them.
7/4 Marumo Gallants | Draw 2/1 | TS Galaxy FC 16/10
Richards Bay vs. Stellenbosch
Current Form:
Richards Bay has enjoyed a solid start to the season, winning their last two matches and showing defensive stability. Stellenbosch, however, remains a strong contender, sitting in the top half of the table but needing to bounce back after a disappointing defeat against Mamelodi Sundowns.
What to Expect:
Richards Bay’s home advantage could be crucial, but Stellenbosch has the quality to cause problems. This matchup could see both teams aiming for a win, leading to a tightly contested game.

What to Expect:
Golden Arrows will be favored to take all three points, but Chippa’s need for a win could lead to an unpredictable match.
13/10 Chippa United FC | Draw 21/10 | Golden Arrows 21/10
Polokwane City vs. Mamelodi Sundowns

Polokwane City has faced challenges this season, sitting near the bottom of the table. Mamelodi Sundowns, the reigning champions, continue to dominate, with their last win showcasing their attacking depth and defensive solidity.
What to Expect:
Sundowns will be heavy favorites, and Polokwane City will need to pull off a monumental performance to upset the champions. Betting on Sundowns to win with a clean sheet could be a smart move, given their current form and historical dominance over Polokwane.
37/10 Polokwane City | Draw 28/10 | Mamelodi Sundowns 13/20
