There is plenty of mid-week action for DSTV Premiership fans to bet on and we take a look at the two games taking place on Tuesday from a betting angle.
SUPERSPORT UNITED v CHIPPA UNITED
SuperSport are falling down the table at a rapid rate and are currently in 8th position with just 1 win in their last 5 matches. They were beaten 3-2 away from home by Golden Arrows on the weekend and at home this season they have won 6, lost 5 and drawn none of their 11 matches. 6 of the 11 SuperSport home games would have seen you collect a profit had you backed over 2.5 goals, but 4 of the last 5 have failed to reach the 3 goal mark.
Chippa United are in 13th position and hovering just above the relegation zone. They have also only won 1 of their last 5 matches and they lost 3-1 at home to Chiefs on the weekend. Chippa United have won 4, drawn 2 and lost 6 of their 12 away matches and a closer look at their goal stats shows that 7 of the 12 matches have had 2 goals or less in them.
These sides played to a goalless draw at Chippa United earlier in the season, the 3rd consecutive draw between the sides.

SuperSport United 11/10
Draw 2/1
Chippa United 29/10
Suggested Bet: SuperSport to win at 11/10
I was toying with Both Teams to Score, Yes, at 5/4 as this has been a common result in recent SuperSport games, but at the end of the day anything about even money on SuperSport is great value in my opinion and they should have the beating of a Chippa United side that doesn’t quite look up to their standard.
KAIZER CHIEFS v TS GALAXY
Kaizer Chiefs are currently 3rd on the table and they had a good 3-1 victory away at Chippa United last time out. That was their 3rd win in their last 4 matches and they now return home where they have only played 9 games winning 5, drawing 1 and losing 3. Kaizer Chiefs home games have averaged 2.6 goals each and the last 4 matches have all delivered you a profit had you backed under 2.5 goals.
TS Galaxy are currently 15th on the table and 2nd from bottom and they are also on terrible run of form that has seen them take just 2 points from their last 5 matches. Last time out they lost 4-1 at home to Royal AM and their last away game was a 1-0 defeat to Baroka. They have only taken 5 points from a possible 33 on the road this season and digging a bit deeper into their goal stats shows that the goals on the road have really dried up with the last 5 matches failing to breach the 2.5 goal mark.
These sides played to a goalless draw earlier this season and this fixture also finished goalless last season.

Kaizer Chiefs 17/20
Draw 23/10
TS Galaxy 7/2
Suggested Bet: Kaizer Chiefs win at 17/20
I was impressed by Chiefs victory on the weekend and expected them to be a bit shorter than this price and the market I was eyeing up was Under 2.5 Goals given the low scoring history between the sides, but at 5/10 it is a bit short for my pocket.
