This game is likely to be decided in the late stages, as the goal timing numbers for both sides point in the same direction: Mamelodi Sundowns score 30% of their total goals in the 31-45 minute period, while AmaZulu score as many as 27% in the 76-90 minute period and concede 31% of their total goals in the same period. Mamelodi Sundowns' last 5 matches are D 2-2, W 3-2, D 1-1, W 2-0, L 0-1, while AmaZulu's are W 2-0, W 1-0, D 3-3, D 1-1, W 2-0 — the away team is unbeaten in 5 matches, and their defense concedes an average of only 0.33 goals per match this season. So this game is likely to see the home side dominate possession and attack, but AmaZulu, sitting deep and waiting to counter, should keep the final margin narrow.
