As the Betway Premiership season nears its climax, the pressure is on as teams fight for vital points at both ends of the table. Tonight, we have four exciting fixtures, featuring crucial relegation battles, top-eight clashes, and title ambitions. Let’s dive into the key matchups, predictions, and betting tips for this evening’s action.
Magesi vs Richards Bay (19:30)
Betting Odds:
- Magesi: 3.05 | Draw: 2.70 | Richards Bay: 2.70
This relegation six-pointer sees Magesi, currently in 15th place, face off against Richards Bay, who sit in 12th. With just four points separating them, Magesi will be desperate to secure three points to escape the relegation playoff spot.
Magesi have been unpredictable lately, with three wins and three losses in their last six matches. Meanwhile, Richards Bay are unbeaten in six games, boasting three wins and three draws. Their solid form makes them slight favorites for this match.
- Prediction: Richards Bay to win 2-1
- Betting Tip: Richards Bay Draw No Bet @ 1.85 – With their unbeaten form, Richards Bay have a good chance of securing at least a draw.
TS Galaxy vs SuperSport United (19:30)
Betting Odds:
- TS Galaxy: 2.25 | Draw: 3.00 | SuperSport United: 3.40
TS Galaxy sit in 7th place, eight points ahead of SuperSport United, who are currently 13th. Galaxy will want to maintain their momentum in their pursuit of a CAF competition spot, while SuperSport United come off a tough Nedbank Cup defeat.
Despite Galaxy’s recent form, SuperSport United have previously defeated them this season, so a close encounter is expected. The draw looks a strong possibility as both sides will aim to avoid defeat.
- Prediction: 1-1 Draw
- Betting Tip: Under 2.5 Goals @ 1.75 – Both teams have been inconsistent in front of goal, making a low-scoring match likely.
Mamelodi Sundowns vs AmaZulu (19:30)
Betting Odds:
- Mamelodi Sundowns: 1.34 | Draw: 4.80 | AmaZulu: 8.60
Mamelodi Sundowns, leading the league with a commanding 16-point advantage, will be eager to bounce back after dropping points against Golden Arrows. Meanwhile, AmaZulu come into this match on a three-game unbeaten run, but their chances of extending that streak seem slim against a well-rested Sundowns squad.
Given Sundowns’ dominance this season, they will be overwhelming favorites, though AmaZulu’s attacking form could make for an exciting encounter.
- Prediction: Sundowns to win 3-2
- Betting Tip: Both Teams to Score (BTTS) @ 2.00 – AmaZulu have been scoring regularly, and Sundowns are strong in attack.
Stellenbosch vs Orlando Pirates (19:30)
Betting Odds:
- Stellenbosch: 3.90 | Draw: 2.80 | Orlando Pirates: 2.20
Stellenbosch FC will take on Orlando Pirates just two days after their Nedbank Cup clash with Kaizer Chiefs. The emotional toll could affect their performance, while Pirates, who are still mathematically in with a chance of the Premiership title, will look to keep their hopes alive with a win.
In the first round, Stellenbosch secured a 1-0 victory over Pirates in Orlando, and with home advantage, they could make it a tough contest for the Sea Robbers.
- Prediction: 2-2 Draw
- Betting Tip: Over 2.5 Goals @ 1.90 – Both teams have attacking threats, and goals are expected.
