Cape Town City vs Kaizer Chiefs Prediction: Both sides have an equal chance of securing the maximum points

On Saturday, Cape Town City will be keen to bounce back from their recent misfortunes when they square off against Kaizer Chiefs at the Athlone Stadium. The Citizens head here without a win in five games and have a stern test ahead of their clash against a solid Kaizer Chiefs side tomorrow. 

Last five games: WDDLL

The Citizens continued to struggle as they march here with a defeat against Royal AM, ending their thirteen games without a defeat against their opponent in the league. For the second, Cape Town lost back to back games, as they dropped to fifth and on log. Things have not been going well for Cape Town City in front of goal, with two games without a goal. 

South Africa Premier League's second-highest goalscorer, Erick Mayo, have now gone two games without scoring. 

They have picked up thirty-one points from a combined sixty, scoring twenty and conceding sixteen. Cape Town City have won four and lost two, drawn twice at home this season, scoring nine while conceding five. 

Last five games: DDDWL

The Amakhosi's seven-game unbeaten run ended with a defeat against arch-rival Orlando Pirates, making it back-to-back losses in the Soweto Derby. Kaizer Chiefs, who were at the top of their game, were on the winning side before the break; however, the hosts scored twice after the break to secure a (3-2) victory for Orlando Pirates. 

Cavin Johnson's men have managed eight wins, five stalemates, and seven defeats this season. Kaizer Chiefs have won three, lost five, and drawn twice away from home this season. 

Over their previous nineteen meetings, Cape Town City have won eight while Kaizer Chiefs have won nine and two games ending in a tie. Cape Town City have been below par lately, failing to score in their last two games. The Citizens have not kept a clean sheet in their previous five games in all competitions, heading here without a win in five encounters. On the other hand, Kaizer Chiefs have not been clinical as well, and all their wins have been scrappy. They march here with a defeat against Orlando Pirates after their decent start to the game. 

Cape Town City have won five consecutive games against Kaizer Chiefs in the league, but considering the fact that this game will be played at Athlone Stadium instead of FNB Stadium will limit their chances. Kaizer Chiefs will likely take advantage of having more fans than the hosts, and we think both teams stand an equal chance of winning this game. 

Kaizer Chiefs have not been at their best against the top six sides in the division, and we think Cape Town City will be determined to end their five-game winless run here; bet on a home win either half for 1.98.

We expect both teams to get a goal apiece here for 2.11.

This game might end in a halftime draw for 1.86.

Good luck!
