To Win (90mins)

Black Aces 11/2 

Draw 22/10 

Sundowns 13/20

Black Aces are unbeaten in their last four games, but having only scored three goals in them is a concern, with the solitary win being 1-0 against Ajax Cape Town.

Believe it or not, this lack of prowess in front goal comes in handy from time to and against teams like Sundowns; it’s certainly going to be a deciding factor.

Downs are the form side in the league at the moment and it’s not tough to see why.

They’ve had eleven different goal scorers this season, showing their depth in ability to notch up points.

In reference to the great sporting mind that is Naas Botha, “You have to score more points than your opponents to win the game”.

This seemingly obvious statement stands true here, and from a tipping perspective should be the single biggest determining factor in a game of this nature.

Home and away conditions shouldn’t be a deterrent from Downs taking this one comfortably, and Aces only have Polokwane City’s freak win over The Brazilians to use as a lesson guide for this fixture.

Betting Prediction: SUNDOWNS 13/20

There’s nothing Aces can do about this fixture, and it will be up to Sundowns to determine their own outcome; that’s three points all the way for me. It’s not a lot of value at 13/20, but worth throwing into a multiple.
