🎯 Mamelodi Sundowns vs Stellenbosch Match Prediction

With just three league games left to play, this game is more important to Stellenbosch who seek a place in the CAF Confederation Cup at the end of the season. However, Mamelodi Sundowns are playing some incredible football right now, and it is just difficult to bet against them at home. While Stellenbosch coach is certain they can take maximum points at Lucas Masterpieces Moripe Stadium, it is clear the visiting team will be full of confidence and approach this game with character. In fact, winning the most games in recent meetings of this game will also be a big boost for them. Yet, I feel the Mamelodi Sundowns are just too good right now and are so much with none of their first eleven players out injured, while they will be boosted with the return of their first choice goalkeeper, Ronwen Williams. This should be another defensive battle also, as both teams will be focused on not losing, hence, a bet on a few goals.
