Prediction published on 09/01/2023, 23:59  by Daniel Ngulu in Premier Soccer League Prediction

Mamelodi Sundowns went 10 points clear with a win in their last game and will be looking to further extend their lead in the Premier Soccer League when they play host to Chippa United. This game finds the two teams 28 points apart; Sundowns at the top with 37 and Chippa in ninth place on 19 points. Sundowns are coming from a 2-0 win over Richards Bay courtesy of goals from Cassius Mailula and Haashim Domingo, making it seven straight wins across all competitions. The result also came with their seventh straight clean sheet and they have eight in 10. Sundowns have also scored two or more goals in eight of their last 10 matches in all competitions, and in the process, they’ve won nine and lost once. In PSL action, they have nine straight wins since losing to SuperSport United and they’ve only conceded three goals in the last 10 matches in the league.

Chippa United haven't done so well in their recent matches and in the league in particular, they are struggling. They have five wins only in 15 league matches, a tally that is seven games less than Sundowns’ so far. Jointly, they have conceded the most (20) among the teams outside the relegation regions and they will be aware they have to do better defensively here. In their last six league meetings with Sundowns, Chippa have only managed one clean sheet, and they are winless in the run, which points to another tough outing ahead. They have no win in their last four games ahead of this one and in three of the four, they have conceded two or more goals. Chippa United have failed to score in one of their last five matches – their most recent game, which they lost 2-0 to Swallows.
