Polokwane City Predicted Lineup

AmaZulu have won 3 of their last 5 home matches (2 draws).
AmaZulu have seen BTTS No in 7 of their last 11 matches.
Polokwane City have lost 3 of their last 4 matches.
Polokwane City have seen BTTS No in their last 5 matches.

Head to Head

AmaZulu hold a narrow 4-3 advantage over Polokwane City across 13 previous matches with six draws.

The sides played out a 0-0 draw when they met in September.

AmaZulu Form & Team News

AmaZulu are winless in five DSTV Premiership matches. At home, it’s just two losses in 11 in the league.

A 3-0 loss at Mamelodi Sundowns preceded a 1-1 draw at home to Moroka Swallows and a 1-1 draw at Sekhukhune United. A 2-0 victory at Sekhukhune followed in the Nedbank Cup round of 16.

Their last match saw two goals leaked in the second half to lose 2-0 at TS Galaxy. AmaZulu outshot their opponents 14-8 but lacked killer instinct.

Coach Pablo Franco Martin may recall defender Abbubaker Mobara after illness. Veteran defender Rama Mphahlele is pushing for a return to the XI with Taariq Fielies suspended.

Attacking midfielder Mondli Mbanjwa made his Bafana Bafana debut last week. He could come back into the XI in a host of changes.

AmaZulu Predicted Lineup

Mothwa; Sikhakhane, Mobara, Mphahlele, Gumede, Hanamub; Brooks, Motshwari, Mbanjwa; Mulenga, Dion.

Polokwane City Form & Team News

Polokwane jumped to 10th in the table with a victory last time out. They had lost four of their previews seven DSTV Premiership fixtures.

A 2-1 win at Chippa United ended a six-match winless streak before a 0-0 draw at Mamelodi Sundowns. They won 1-0 at Moroka Swallows to start 2024 and then lost three matches in a row.

Last time out, they scored early and held on for a 1-0 home victory over Chippa United.

Coach Phuti Mohafe has an injury doubt over Cole Alexander. Given Mashikinya is set to return to the starting XI in his place.

Oswin Appollis only played 45 minutes after international duty but will start here. Puleng Marema is injured in attack.

Polokwane City Predicted Lineup

Sapunga; Matuludi, Nikani, Nkaki, Ndlovu; Ramabu, Mashikinya, Kambala, Appollis; Mabena; Mapfumo.

Verdict

AmaZulu v Polokwane City

I'm tipping this match to only have one side on target. AmaZulu should have enough to eke out a narrow win.
