Sekhukhune United vs Stellenbosch Prediction: Battle for CAF Champions League spot continues

Stellenbosch will travel to Polokwane as they face off Sekhukhune United at the Peter Mokaba Stadium in this round 15 South Africa Premier League game. Entering into this fixture, the last meeting between these sides ended in a goalless draw in a league encounter. Will this one have a winner, or will a draw be another huge result for them?

Sekhukhune United - WLWDD

Sekhukhune United are off back-to-back ties in the league, the first coming against Cape Town City, while their last was against Stellenbosch, who they will face here. In the meantime, Sekhukhune United have now gone without losing any of their last three league games. The hosts tasted just one defeat in their previous 12 games in all competitions, which was a 0-2 loss to AmaZulu in the NEDBANK Cup round ⅛. The pre-match fact shows that Sekhukhune United lost just one match this year, while two of their last five have won.

Stellenbosch - WWWDW

Stellenbosch are one of the most in-form sides in the South Africa Premier League right now, if not the best. In their last game, the visiting team enjoyed a 4-0 thumping home win against Supersport United in the NEDBANK Cup quarterfinal stage. However, that win is just a testament to how consistent this side is, as Stellenbosch now boasts four wins in their last five games. In both home and away games, Stellenbosch remain undefeated since their 3-1 defeat at the hands of league-leading Mamelodi Sundowns in week 8 of the SPL fixture.

H2H

There are just six games played by both sides in their history together. Stellenbosch are yet to win in those games, while two ended in victories for Sekhukhune United, even though one was decided on penalties. However, four other games ended in draws, where Stellenbosch scored three goals, while Sekhukhune United scored four.

Expert Betting Tips

The competitiveness of this game can not be overemphasized, and it is clear that we are up for another challenging game. Having seen the quality in the two squads and how consistent they have been on both ends of the field, there is always something clear here: both teams have no losing mentality. However, I expect both teams to go all out for the win, which should result in a number of attacking plays, with a draw satisfying both teams at the full time.
