The Nedbank Cup semi-finals are set with the first fixture seeing Durban City and Casric Stars clash at Chatsworth Stadium. This marks the first meeting between these two sides in this tournament. Read on for our match prediction.
Durban City are in fine form heading into this clash. In the last 90 minutes, the home team have suffered just one defeat in their last eight matches (W3, D4).
Their latest match was a 1-0 home win against bitter rivals Richards Bay in the Betway Premiership. That victory ensured they remained in contention for a place in the top three.
The Citizens now turn their attention to the Nedbank Cup semi-finals. They reached this stage by beating Chippa United, Upington City, and Golden Arrows.
Casric Stars are making their eighth appearance in the Nedbank Cup, and their journey in this competition has been impressive for a second-tier side that was written off from the start.
Joseph Mthombeni's charges are unbeaten in their last four away matches in this tournament, winning twice and drawing twice. Their highlighted wins during this period came via penalties against top-flight sides. They defeated Orlando Pirates and AmaZulu in the last 16 and the quarter-finals, respectively.
Their latest match was against Kruger United in the National First Division. A commanding performance it was as they won 4-0 at home to halt a two-match winless run.
