University of Pretoria vs Mamelodi Sundowns Predictions


AmaTuks are pushing for promotion to the top flight. They’ve been rotating their XI in the cup games. I’m backing Sundowns to win to nil with the hosts missing their top striker.

  • University of Pretoria have lost 6 of their last 7 matches vs Mamelodi Sundowns.

Head to Head


Sundowns have played AmaTuks on 10 occasions and have never lost. They have seven wins with three draws.

When the sides last met in 2016, Sundowns won 3-0 away from home.

University of Pretoria Form & Team News


University of Pretoria are 16 matches without defeat in all competitions. They sit second in the National First Division table with seven matches to play.

A 0-0 draw at Platinum City Rovers preceded successive 2-1 home wins: vs Hungry Lions in the NDF and vs Moroka Swallows in the Nedbank Cup. A 1-0 win over Milford FC followed. 

Their last match saw a 1-0 victory at Casric Stars last Friday in the league. 

Coach Tlisane Motaung has rotated his XI in the Nedbank Cup. 

Top striker Thabang Sibanyoni is ineligible to face his parent club. 

University of Pretoria Predicted Lineup


Maova, Majadibodu, Mahlangu, Gum, Makara, Mpedi, Mampuru, Mdevulana, Pheeane, Mkhuma, Abrahams. 

Mamelodi Sundowns Form & Team News


Sundowns are unbeaten in 19 matches with an incredible 16 clean sheets in that streak. Their last eight matches have only yielded eight goals scored. 

A 2-0 home win vs Maritzburg United in the Nedbank Cup was followed by a A 0-0 draw at Young Africans in the CAF Champions League. After beating Richards Bay 1-0 at home, Sundowns beat Young Africans on penalties after the second leg also ended 0-0.

In midweek, Downs went to Cape Town Spurs and ground out a 1-0 win. The victory came from an unjust penalty decision. 

Central defender Mosa Lebusa and midfielder Bongani Zungu remain out injured.

Coach Rhulani Mokwena may rotate his side slightly. Aubrey Modiba is set to return in defence.

Mamelodi Sundowns Predicted Lineup


Williams; Mudau, Kekana, Mvala, Modiba; Aubaas, Mokoena, Maema; Lorch; Sirino, Shalulile.

Verdict

I'm backing a Sundowns win and clean sheet here.
