Mamelodi Sundowns v Black Leopards betting tips & prediction; PSL preview

Welcome to our Mamelodi Sundowns v Black Leopards betting tips, prediction and odds analysis ahead of their Premier League Soccer clash on Saturday.

In their final game of the league season, the Sundowns need a win to to be any chance of winning the league.

The Downs are behind the Kaizer Chiefs only on goal difference. A victory for them and a loss or draw for the Chiefs will result in Pitso Mosimane’s side winning the league.

While they are highly unlikely to make up the goal difference of four, Masandawana could not have asked for better opponents against whom to keep their dream.

Leopards lie in 14th place on the ABSA Premiership table and are in danger of dropping down into the relegation play-off spot should they draw or lose.

Sundowns are the firm favourites for the game and are paying $1.58 to win the game while a victory for Leopards is paying $5.66.

Leopards are in a tricky position. They can either try to attack Downs which may backfire or play conservatively, trying to enforce a draw in order to secure their top-flight status for another campaign.

Leopards have surpassed expectations recently and won three out of their past five games. They also enter the game on the back of a 1-0 upset over Bidvest Wits which could give them some confidence.

Over 3.5 goals scored in match

Mosimane has won three ABSA Premiership titles at the helm of Downs. He is experienced at handling games at this end of the season. They will also be up against a side which has the joint worst defence in the league. Lidoda Duvha have conceded 41 goals from 29 games so far with only Polokwane City conceding as many. We think the Sundowns can score at least 3+ goals.

Themba Zwane and Gaston Sirino will be expected to pose all sorts of problems for Leopards as they have done in recent seasons. Masandawana have also won their past eight consecutive games against Lidoda Duvha.

Mamelodi Sundowns vs Black Leopards prediction

Sundowns should be too good for their opponents on the day and can be expected to expose the fragility in the Lidoda Duvha defence. Mosimane’s men should be able to pull off a convincing and easy win.
Our final Mamelodi Sundowns v Black Leapords prediction? Sundowns 3-1.
