Sekhukhune United vs Mamelodi Sundowns FC Prediction: The Brazilians are the favorite to amass all the points in this evenly contested game

The Brazilians have a stern test ahead of their clash against a dangerous Sekhukhune United at the Old Peter Mokaba Stadium on Wednesday. The home side have been pretty much consistent this season, and they’ll see this game as an avenue to avenge the reverse leg defeat against Mamelodi Sundowns. 

Sekhukhune United (3rd)

Last five games: DLDWW

Babina Noko's team moved to the third spot on the log following their three games without a defeat in the league. Sekhukhune United recorded a deserved (0-1) victory over Chippa United away from home. It was a decent performance from Sekhukhune United who protected their early lead with their lives to amass all the points. This was before their (4-2) victory over Amazulu on their home turf. 

The hosts continue to impress under the watch of coach Lehlohonolo Seema. His side has been in decent form this campaign and seems like a top-four side. They have picked up thirty-one points from a possible fifty-six, scoring twenty-three and conceding seventeen.

Sekhukhune United have won six, drawn two and lost twice at home in this competition. 

Mamelodi Sundowns (1st)

Expert Betting Tips

Over their previous seven meetings, Mamelodi Sundowns have won six and recorded a stalemate against Sekhukhune United FC. The home side have been consistent on their ground this season, and their last two losses were against TS Galaxy and Orlando Pirates. On the other hand, Mamelodi Sundowns have been shaky lately, and they will be tested by a resilient Sekhukhune United team tomorrow.

Mamelodi Sundowns are the favorite to amass all the points due to the quality of their team, but Sekhukhune United will give them a run for their money. The Brazilians' defense have been shaky lately, and there is no way they’d keep a clean sheet against Sekhukhune United. I expect an open encounter here with BTTS and over 2.5 goals for 3.01 at (Bet365).

I also think the Brazilians will get a goal before the break for 1.71 at (1xbet).

I’m backing Mamelodi Sundowns to win and score more than a goal despite how strong the hosts have been; bet on away win and over 1.5 goals for 2.10 at (Betway).

Regardless of my pick here, I will advise you to apply caution as the hosts are capable of pulling a surprise stunt against the Brazilians. 

Good luck!
