Expert Betting Tips
Over their previous twenty meetings, Supersport United have won three while Sundowns have recorded twelve wins and five games ending in a draw. The Brazilians head here with lots of injury concerns, and having played four times, including the internationals break already this month, fatigue might set in for the players. This same thing applies to the hosts, who just landed from Egypt on Monday. This is not the perfect time for this derby, and we think it might not really produce the result expected. Of course, Mamelodi Sundowns remain the favorite here as they have been exceptional this season. Both teams have quality players who know how to score, and we think Gavin Hunt isn’t a coward to leave without a fight; bet on Mamelodi Sundowns to win either half for 1.64.
Mamelodi Sundowns will be keen to maintain their unbeaten record in the league, and we see them as the favorite here; bet on the visitors to score first for 1.73.
This encounter will produce goals; bet on a total of over 2.5 goals for 2.39.
Good luck!
