Golden Arrows vs Mamelodi Sundowns Prediction

Golden Arrows are just three points above the relegation zone and their patchy form means they will be looking nervously over their shoulders. Their last four home games to produce a winner have been decided by a one-goal margin as their home games tend to be cagey affairs.

Sundowns, for their part, have an 18-point lead over Orlando Pirates, albeit having played four games more than the team in second. The defending champions are currently on a five-game winning streak and have not lost any of the last 14 head-to-head games (nine wins) in this fixture.

Barring an unlikely upset, there should only be one winner here. We are backing the visitors to claim a comfortable win in addition to a clean sheet.

Prediction: Golden Arrows 0-3 Mamelodi Sundowns
