The Citizens have had a rough season; just after being knocked out by Petro Luanda in the CAF Championship, they were eliminated from the CAF Confederation. Before they embarked on the CAF journey, they suffered another setback on the road against Marumo Gallants. A game that was ending towards a split of points breathed life when the home side scored in the dying minute to secure all points. Cape Town City have been terrible this season, and it’s looking like they might not live up to their last season's performance.

Cape Town City have just two wins at home this season, with three draws and a loss.

Third-placed Royal AM last season have failed to impress in this campaign. They have won five, drawn once and lost six in the last twelve games. Unlike the previous season, where they lost seven in total, Royal AM lost six in just twelve matches. Royal AM have scored fourteen while conceding eighteen so far. More recently, they suffered another setback as they were overwhelmed by the champions. Mamelodi scored three times without a response to make away with all the points.

Royal AM have won two and lost three in their last six away matches.

Cape Town City have won eight times, while Royal AM have had two victories and five draws in the previous fifteen meetings.

Both sides have suffered a massive setback this season and are struggling to keep up with the top guys on the log. One thing about Cape Town City is that they play one of the best football in the league but lack precision in front of goals. Regardless, we are backing the home side to either win or draw and score more than once for 2.03.

Considering their previous record against the visitors, a win for Cape Town City for 2.10 might be worth it for 2.10.

Both sides have found the back of the liner in the last three meetings; bet on BTTS for 2.08.

Good luck!
