Prediction published on 27/11/2023, 15:10  by Devesh Jaganath in Premier Soccer League Prediction

Mamelodi Sundowns will return to PSL action when they travel to take on Supersport United on Wednesday evening. The hosts are third in their league standings, while the visitors are second. Supersport come into this match following back-to-back losses in the league and CAF Confederation Cup respectively either side of the international break. Nevertheless, they have won three of their last five PSL games, leaving them on 23 points after 12 games, three ahead of Golden Arrows, who are the first side below the continental cup qualification spots. The hosts have been very good at home this season, losing only once in five matches. Looking further back, that loss was the only one they conceded in their last 25 home league games dating all the way back to February 2022. That included a 2-1 win over this opponent last season. However, with Sundowns showing sensational form this term, the hosts are the underdogs in this one. 

As mentioned, Sundowns have been in scintillating form this season. They have been involved in AFL action in recent times and return to the league for their first match in over five weeks. That means that while the Brazilians are second in the standings with 24 points, they have played four fewer matches than this opponent and have five in hand on league leaders Cape Town City. In the eight matches they have played, the visitors have a 100% winning record and have kept an impressive five clean sheets in that time. Sundowns last league match ended in a 3-1 victory over Stellenbosch and extended their unbeaten league record to a whopping 32 consecutive matches. The last defeat they suffered was that 2-1 loss to Supersport back in February last year. That was also the only loss they have conceded against this opponent in their last six meetings, with the other five games ending in four wins and a draw.
