Kaizer Chiefs host Mamelodi Sundowns in an Absa Premier League clash on Saturday and we take a look at the game from a betting angle.
KAIZER CHIEFS
Kaizer Chiefs are currently 4th on the log a massive 19 points behind Mamelodi Sundowns who played only 1 game more. Chiefs have lost their last 2 games going down 4-0 away at AmaZulu last time out and losing 1-0 at home to Sekhukhune before that.
Overall at home this season Chiefs have played 7 times, winning 3 and drawing 2. They have only won 1 of their last 5 home games. Digging a bit deeper into Chiefs goal stats their home matches have seen 4 out of 7 games deliver profits for over 2.5 goal backers which is a high percentage by PSL standards.
MAMELODI SUNDOWNS
As mentioned above Mamelodi Sundowns are top of the League and handsomely so being 14 points clear of Richards Bay having played 1 game more. They have now won 11 PSL matches in a row and last time out were too strong for SuperSport United, winning 1-0 in the Pretoria Derby. Their last away game was a 2-0 victory over second placed Richards Bay and in 17 games this season Sundowns have scored 33 goals and conceded only 6.
Their away form has been solid enough with 5 victories and a draw and they have won their last 4 away games in succession. Only 3 of the 7 Sundowns away matches have reached the 3 goal mark. Sundowns have only conceded 3 goals in those 7 games.
HEAD-TO-HEAD
Sundowns beat Chiefs 4-0 at home earlier this season and last season this fixture finished 1-1.

Kaizer Chiefs 15/4
Draw 23/10
Mamelodi Sundowns 17/20
Suggested Bet: Mamelodi Sundowns win at 17/20
This is about as bigger price that you are going to get for Mamelodi Sundowns and for a team that has won their last 11 playing against a side that was beaten 4-0 by AmaZulu last time out, I would have to say 17/20 is a tempting enough price for me. Sundowns look to be in a different class to anything else in the PSL and I think they will be up for this game against perhaps the one team that has the resources to challenge them at some point in the future.
Suggested Bet: Correct Score, 0-2 at 6/1
Chiefs are going to really struggle to break down the Sundowns defence, but Sundowns haven't been prolific scorers on the road and I think the 2-0 result to the visitors is a big runner.
