Supersport United vs Chippa United FC: Prediction and odds on the Match on 03 May 2025
The Betway Premier League continues as Andre Arendse’s side lock horns against Chippa United, hoping to secure their sixth win of the season at the Lucas Moripe Stadium on Saturday.
Matsatsantsa Comrades have managed one win in their last thirteen league matches, and they are on the verge of playing in the second division for the first time since 1997. On the other hand, Chippa United are on course to finish in the top half of the table for the first time since 2016.

It’s so sad to see a team playing in the continental competition two seasons ago now struggling to win games. Andre Arendse’s team's last win in the Betway Premiership was against Kaizer Chiefs on the road. Since the win, Supersport United have lost twice and drawn four games. More recently, they settled for a share of the spoils against Polokwane City away from home. Matsatsantsa were pretty decent in that game, and I think they deserved more than just a point. They controlled the game and drew the first blood, but as usual, they conceded minutes later and couldn’t find the winner. This was after their stalemate against Marumo Gallants on the road.
It’s now becoming a norm for the home side to concede, as they have managed to keep two clean sheets in thirteen Betway Premiership matches.
Andre Arendse’s men have picked up twenty-four points from a combined seventy-two, scoring fourteen and letting in twenty-four goals.
Supersport United have been inconsistent at home, winning three of their last eleven home games.
Supersport United: Lineup
The hosts' interim coach, who took over from Gavin Hunt, is still looking for his first win since his appointment. He’s still using the same format and probably plays the same way as they used to. Under his watch, Supersport United has lost twice and drawn four times.
Supersport United Potential Starting Lineup (4-2-3-1)
Ricardo Goss—Lyle Lakay, Thulani Hlatshwayo, Ime Okon, Nyiko Mobbie—Sipheshihle Ndlovu, Gape Moralo—Christian Saile, Lebohang Mahoe, Siviwe Magidigidi—Bradly Grobler
Head Coach: Andre Arendse

The Chilli Boys’ four consecutive games without a loss ended when they were narrowly beaten by Stellenbosch on the road. Despite their resilience in the game, they succumbed to pressure in the 83rd minute, when Sanele Barns scored for Stellenbosch. They did everything right except putting the ball into the net. Before then, Chippa United stood their ground against Kaizer Chiefs to split points (0-0). The guests didn't do much in that particular encounter, managing just a shot on target. Chippa United were saved by the heroic display of their best player, Stanley Nwabali. Thabo September's men have found the back of the net in two of their last eight Betway Premiership games.
Chippa United have played twenty-four times in the Betway Premiership and have recorded eight wins. They have picked up thirty points from a combined seventy-two, scoring twenty-one and conceding nineteen.
Chilli Boys have won two, lost six, and drawn three on the road this season.
Chippa United Lineup
Enock Sakala was substituted in the 32nd minute of their game against Stellenbosch, and the Zambian international won’t be available for this encounter. Coach Thabo September's tactics aren't a possession-based team, and they hardly create meaningful chances, especially when playing on the road. Judging from their three Betway Premiership games, they have had barely 30% of the ball. I expect Chippa United to deploy a low back, look for their opponent's lapses, and hit them on the counter. Games like this need the resilience of their best player, goalkeeper Stanley Nwabali, and for them to get anything away from this game, he has to be at his best.
Chippa United Potential Starting Lineup (4-2-3-1)
Stanley Nwabali— Azola Ntsabo, Justice Chabalala, Thabo Makhele, Boy John Madingwana—Sergio Kammies, Papama Tyongwana—Craig Martin, Ayabulela Konqobe, Giovanni Philander, —Sinoxolo Kwayiba
Out: Enock Sakala
Head Coach: Thabo September
