Mamelodi Sundowns vs TS Galaxy Prediction: The hosts are expected to quickly adjust after their recent loss at the continental level

After their elimination from the CAF Champions League, Mamelodi Sundowns will be poised to return to winning ways when they face off against TS Galaxy at the Loftus Versfeld Stadium on Monday. The Brazilians, who are in pole position to retain the PSL title, won’t be able to win the treble this season. They’ll have to focus on seeing off the League and fight for the FA Cup.

Mamelodi Sundowns (1st)

Last five games: DWWDW

The Brazilians head here with a deserved (2-1) victory over Sekhukhune United despite changing almost their starting eleven. Tashreeq Mathews, who was bought from Sweden, provided an assist and found the back of the net to extend his team’s unbeaten run to twenty-two in the league. 

The Brazilians are one of the best teams in the continent; unfortunately, they were knocked out of the CAF Championship by Tunisian top side Esperance ST on their ground. Mamelodi Sundowns have the best defence in the league, although they have played fewer games. Mamelodi Sundowns have won nine and drawn three at home this season.

TS Galaxy (5th)

Last five games: WWWLW

The Rockets bounced back from their recent defeat against Stellenbosch on the road to secure the maximum points over Moroka Swallows. TS Galaxy scored in both halves, while the visiting team responded once to amass the points. 

TS Galaxy are eyeing the continental spot on the log and are just two points from achieving that after Sekhukhune United lost to Mamelodi Sundowns. TS Galaxy play one of the best football in the league and are 5th on the log with thirty-seven points from sixty-nine. The Rockets will rely solely on their home record to at least end up in the top half of the table this season, as they hardly win on the road. 

Expert Betting Tips

Mamelodi Sundowns have won five, while TS Galaxy have recorded two wins over their previous seven meetings. Mamelodi Sundowns have actually been below par lately as they’ve struggled to score goals. The Brazilians need to start planning for next season from now because they surely have to do better at the continental level. They were knocked out of the CAF Champions League by Esperance ST on their ground and are now left with the PSL and South Africa FA Cup. At the same time, TS Galaxy have not been bad lately as they quickly adjusted with a (2-1) win over Moroka Swallows after the defeat against Stellenbosch on their ground. We think the home side would love to put a smile on the faces of their home supporters who trooped in to watch their disappointing performance against Esperance ST in the CAF Champions League by giving them a befitting display against the visiting side; bet on a home win and over 1.5 goals for 1.84.

We expect the visitors to struggle, but we think they can find the back of the net.

Mamelodi Sundowns will likely get a halftime victory for 2.05.

Good luck!
