Durban City vs TS Galaxy Predictions


Whilst the hosts are excelling in the First Division, I see TS Galaxy extending their hot form. I’m backing an away win to zero with Durban City prioritising promotion over a cup run.

Head to Head


This is the first meeting between these clubs. 

Durban City Form & Team News


Durban City sit at the top of the First Division as they chase promotion to the top flight. Their last 11 matches have seen nine victories and just one defeat.

After four straight league wins, they were beaten 1-0 away at Casric Stars. A 2-0 win at Lerumo Lions saw them progress to the last-16 of the Nedbank Cup. 

In the last two weeks, they eked out two 1-0 home wins in the league: vs Kruger United and against Venda FC.

Coach Simo Dladla has some top-flight experience to call upon. Speedy forward Joslin Kamatuka has 10 goals this season. 

Former Bafana Bafana international Ruzaigh Gamildien is another key man in attack. Right back Katlego Maphathe has plenty of experience in the PSL.

Durban City Predicted Lineup


More information on the starting XI will be available closer to kickoff. 

TS Galaxy Form & Team News


TS Galaxy are flying right now with no defeats in 13 matches. They have rocketed to fourth in the PSL table and beat the defending champions in midweek. 

They thrashed minnows Vasco Da Gama 7-0 in the last round of the Nedbank Cup. A 2-0 home win vs Cape Town City preceded a 0-0 draw vs Polokwane City. 

After scoring late to beat Chippa United 1-0 at home, they beat Mamelodi Sundowns on Tuesday. A goal just before half-time was enough as they allowed Sundowns just 0.52 xG from 74% possession.

Coach Adnan Beganovic has a settled side despite losing key midfielder Thato Khiba in the transfer window. Central defender MacBeth Mahlangu is out due to injury. 

There could be some slight rotation to the XI with Keagan Dolly hoping to start as the number ten. Jiri Ciupa could get a rare start in goal. 

TS Galaxy Predicted Lineup


Ciupa; Munyai, Kabini, Ndamane, Sibande; Sebelebele, Mvelase, Maduna, Dithejane; Dolly; Zajmovic.

Verdict

I'm backing TS Galaxy to win this match with a clean sheet.
