Kaizer Chiefs will be looking to ramp up the pressure on the Betway Premiership's top three in midweek, after Mamelodi Sundowns, Sekhukhune United and Orlando Pirates all dropped points last weekend.

Amakhosi could climb up to second place if they beat newly-promoted Orbit College at the FNB Stadium on Tuesday.

The Glamour Boys arrested a four-match winless run after they edged Durban City 1-0 on Friday to momentarily go above Pirates, who reclaimed third position with a 1-1 draw against the Brazilians the following day.

The Mswenko Boyz recorded back-to-back wins for the first time as they downed Magesi 3-1 on Saturday, to pull four points clear of the danger zone in 13th spot.

Sundowns will target a return to winning ways when they welcome TS Galaxy to the Lucas Masterpieces Moripe Stadium on Wednesday.

Bafana ba Style have only won two of their last five games following the stalemate with the Buccaneers, although they held onto top spot after Babina Noko slipped up once again.

While Pirates recorded four wins and one draw in their last five games, Golden Arrows are in seventh spot, with three wins and two losses to their name in their previous handful of league fixtures.

Abafana Bes’thende will head into their next game on the back of a convincing 4-0 win over Marumo Gallants in a game that took place at the King Zwelithini Stadium on Sunday.

WHAT WAS SAID

After being questioned by his much talked about rotation policy at the club, Ouaddou recently expressed that he puts full trust in his players to perform.

With Ouaddou expected to make changes to his team yet again, the Pirates mentor believes that the sheer workload calls for player rotations.

“I have faith in all my players. I think you have seen how I’ve been working since the beginning of this season,” Ouaddou said.

“I tried to rotate the players because we’re playing many competitions, so I have faith in all my players,” Ouaddou said.

"I gave a chance to some players [against Sundowns]; the idea is to all the time have some freshness – because you see we are playing every three days, with high intensity, very important games, and at the same time, as an educator, not a coach, I want to protect the physical integrity of my players because I need them all season.”

PLAYERS TO WATCH

Golden Arrows: Thokozani Khumalo – After scoring a brace in Arrows’ recent 4-0 win against Marumo Gallants, Khumalo will no doubt be eager to continue his positive goal scoring form against a formidable opponent like Pirates later this week.

Orlando Pirates: Lebone Seema – After bagging his first Man of the Match award for Pirates against Mamelodi Sundowns this past weekend, Seema’s confidence will be sky high heading into their next fixture.

Mamelodi Sundowns head coach Miguel Cardoso wants to see more of the same character from his team when they host TS Galaxy in the Betway Premiership at the Lucas Masterpieces Moripe Stadium on Wednesday.

Kick-off is at 7.30pm CAT (SA, GMT+2)

CURRENT FORM

Cardoso hit back at claims that he's too defensive after the Brazilians played out to a 1-1 draw with title rivals Orlando Pirates at Loftus Versfeld on Saturday.

Masandawana enjoyed the lion's share of the possession, but they only managed seven attempts at goal - one less than the Buccaneers, who equalised through Cemran Dansin after Peter Shalulile opened the scoring on 20 minutes.

Bafana ba Style have won just two of their last five league matches, but they remain two points clear of Sekhukhune United at the top of the table, having played one game more.

A new week, another challenge. 🙌

— Mamelodi Sundowns FC (@Masandawana) November 3, 2025

The Rockets made a good recovery after losing their opening two fixtures of the season, embarking on a five-match unbeaten run to climb into the top eight.

However, back-to-back defeats against Magesi and Pirates halted their momentum before Adnan Beganovic's side returned to winning ways by beating Stellenbosch 2-0 on 2 November.

Galaxy are in a three-way tie with Golden Arrows (7th) and Polokwane City (8th) on 16 points in sixth position and trail Sundowns by six with a game in hand.

WHAT WAS SAID

Mamelodi Sundowns head coach Miguel Cardoso: "Despite people say, 'you're a defensive coach', that's bull****. So what I mean, it's not true. We wanted to win the match and at halftime I was very hard on my players in terms of mindset, in terms of attitude because for this match we had an expression all week.

"Nobody kills an attitude, and at halftime I said is that the attitude nobody is able to kill, the one we had when we conceded a goal because I was a little bit of 'what is in your mind guys' after you suffer a goal.

"Do you want to be brave or do you want to feel fear because if you want to feel fear, you won't play at the level, you have to play. If you're brave you can go for the match, to win it and I think they were brave, they fought.

"What I saw from my players was character, so I go along with what you said, I think we saw character. Could we have done better? Yes. Do we believe we will do better? Yes, but probably two of the best teams [in South Africa] were on the pitch."

PLAYERS TO WATCH

Mamelodi Sundowns - Peter Shalulile has been biding his time patiently as he continues to play second fiddle to Iqraam Rayners at Chloorkop. But the Namibian hitman is still as reliable as ever after scoring his third goal of the season against the Sea Robbers, having become the all-time leading scorer in South Africa with his winner against Stellenbosch on 30 August.

TS Galaxy - Seluleko Mahlambi has really stepped up since being promoted to the first team at the start of the season. The 21-year-old winger opened his account with a brace against Siwelele and scored his sixth goal in seven games in the 2-0 win over the Maroons last time out. He is now just goal behind Junior Dion in the race for the Golden Boot.

Kaizer Chiefs will look to claim a second successive victory in the Betway Premiership as they host Orbit College at the FNB Stadium in Johannesburg on Tuesday.

Kick-off is at 7:30pm CAT.

CURRENT FORM

Kaizer Chiefs claimed their first Betway Premiership win since 30 August on Friday, beating Durban City 1-0 at the Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban.

AmaKhosi struck in the 88th minute through substitute Flávio Silva, who has bagged three goals in four league appearances since joining the Soweto giants.

Despite suffering a loss and three consecutive draws in between league wins, Chiefs sit fourth on the standings with 19 points from 10 games, and are level on points with their archrivals, Orlando Pirates.

Despite a slow start to the league campaign, Orbit College have claimed three wins, one draw and one loss in the club's last five league games.

The Mswenko boys have won two on the trot in the Betway Premiership after defeating Magesi 3-1 at Olympia Park on Saturday. They sit 11th on the standings with 13 points from 11 games.

They will be looking to extend their winning streak as they face Chiefs for the first time in the top flight.

WHAT WAS SAID

Kaizer Chiefs co-coach Cedric Kaze admitted that his side were not at their best against Durban City last weekend.

“It's true that we were not at our best but it’s a league, it’s a marathon you need to win even when we’re not at our best,” said Kaze.

“Because I remember a few weeks ago there were some games [where] we had like 70 per cent possession, 20 shots on target [and] we didn’t win the game. It’s those games like today, you’re not at our best and you need to win to get the three points.”

PLAYERS TO WATCH

Kaizer Chiefs - Mfundo Vilakazi has started Chief’s last three games after returning from the FIFA U-20 World Cup. The young star is yet to score in the league this season and will be looking to open his account on Tuesday.

Orbit College - Monnapule Saleng has begun to find his form following his loan move from Orlando Pirates, scoring twice and assisting twice in nine league games. The 27-year-old will be looking to push his side to a statement win.

HEAD-TO-HEAD (league results)

This will be the first league meeting between Kaizer Chiefs and Orbit College.

Orlando Pirates coach Abdeslam Ouaddou had no hesitation in fielding inexperienced Cemran Dansin in the key Betway Premiership fixture against Mamelodi Sundowns at the weekend and reveled in the cracking goal the 20-year-old scored in the 1-1 draw.

It was only a second start for Dansin, who made his full debut for Pirates in last Tuesday’s Carling Knockout quarterfinal win over Magesi, and while he looked to struggle in a busy midfield battle, he more than made up for it with a volleyed goal from outside the area that levelled the scores and saw Pirates take home a precious point.

“Since I came to the country eight or nine months ago, I’ve discovered that there is such, such big talent in South Africa,” is how Ouaddou began his explanation.

“And when you notice, and when you have the eyes, to see some young talent in the country, they deserve to be encouraged, to be pushed to build themselves.

“I know sometimes some coaches are scared to give a chance to young players because they're scared if they lose, they can be sacked. But as an ex-football player, I got the chance to play at the age of 18 years old,” he continued.

On Dansin, Ouaddou added: “So I have seen a fantastic potential in that player, since the pre-season when we decided to bring him to Spain with us, and he showed us fantastic qualities during the friendly games.

“I worked for seven years in development in France and you have to be careful not to burn this kind of potential. So you have to bring them on step by step. It's why you have seen that I give him sometimes 15, 20, 30 minutes, 60 minutes, just to make him comfortable.

“And I thought that it was the right moment for him against one of the best teams in the continent and to throw him in the bath. We needed to put him and to give him experience. And I think it was a fantastic opportunity for him to show against Mamelodi Sundowns what he's able to do.”

Dansin was taken off after an hour.

“Of course, I'll agree with you that he still needs work. Of course, if he were perfect, we would say that he's a Messi, but he still needs to work, and we will improve him to be one of the best players in South Africa,” the Pirates coach added.

 

Kaizer Chiefs were the big winners in matchday 11 of the Betway Premiership, which saw Mamelodi Sundowns, Sekhukhune United and Orlando Pirates drop points.

The action started on Friday with Flavio Silva's late goal earning Chiefs a 1-0 victory over Durban City in eThekwini and, as a result, Amakhosi are placed fourth in the league standings - three points behind leaders, Sundowns.

In Tshwane, Sundowns let a lead slip away when they drew 1-1 with Pirates on Saturday as Cemran Dansin cancelled out Peter Shalulile's opener. Pirates are placed third in the standings, level on points with Chiefs, but Bucs have a game in hand.

Sekhukhune, on the other hand, remained third in the standings after succumbing to a 1-0 defeat to Siwelele FC, who secured all three points thanks to 20-year-old Siviwe Magidigidi's second-half goal in Bloemfontein on Friday.

Meanwhile, AmaZulu, who are placed fifth in the standings, also closed in on the top four teams after thrashing rock-bottom Chippa United 3-0 in East London, where Hendrick Ekstein (brace) and Athini Maqokolo hit the back of the net on Saturday.

In Rustenburg, Monnapule Saleng produced a Man of the Match performance to help Orbit College make history by winning back-to-back top-flight matches for the first time, when they claimed a 3-1 victory over Magesi FC.

Two matches were played on Sunday, with Stellenbosch FC's woes continuing after they suffered a 2-0 defeat to TS Galaxy, who found the back of the net through Selukelo Mahlambi and Sanele Barns (own-goal) in Mbombela.

The last game of the weekend saw Golden Arrows ease into the eight after hammering Marumo Gallants 4-0, in a match which saw Thokozani Khumalo coming off the bench to score twice and provide an assist in Durban.

Golden Arrows 4-0 Marumo Gallants

Golden Arrows claimed a comfortable 4-0 victory over 10-man Marumo Gallants in the Betway Premiership match, which was played at the King Goodwill Zwelithini Stadium on Sunday evening.

The victory elevated Abafana Bes'thende into the top eight as they are now placed seventh in the standings. The KwaZulu-Natal side will be looking to make it two wins in a row when they play host to Orlando Pirates on Wednesday in another league game.

Bahlabane Ba Ntwa, on the other hand, remained outside the top eight as they are occupying the 10th spot in the standings. Coach Alexandre Laffite's side will be in action in eThekwini once again on Wednesday when they lock horns with Durban City.

Having found the back of the net in each of his last three league matches, Sede Junior Dion was the man to watch out for in the Abafana Bes'thende side and the Ivorian centre forward managed to continue his impressive goalscoring form against Bahlabane Ba Ntwa

Jerome Karelse set up Dion, who made no mistake as the 31-year-old hitman hit the back of the net to hand Arrows the lead, as he haunted his former club, having had two spells with Gallants. The score was 1-0 to Arrows at the interval, thanks to league top scorer Dion's seventh goal of the season.

Coach Manqoba Mngqithi introduced Thokozani Khumalo 12 minutes into the second-half. Khumalo provided the assist when 19-year-old Isaac Cisse scored with 15 minutes left on the clock and it was the Ivorian teenager's second goal in as many league matches.

Khumalo was proving to be an inspired substitute as the former Mkhambathi FC star grabbed a late brace. The attacker beat goalkeeper Washington Arubi in the 87th minute, before scoring again in stoppage time to seal Arrows' 4-0 victory over Gallants, with Sabelo Radebe providing the assist.

Gallants finished the game with 10 players after Simo Mbhele, who was playing against his former club, was shown a red card in the 89th minute after receiving his second yellow card of the game, having been introduced with nine minutes left.

TS Galaxy ended their two-match losing streak in the Betway Premiership by recording a morale boosting 2-0 win against Stellenbosch at the Mbombela Stadium on Sunday afternoon.

In what was a frustrating outing for the Western Cape outfit, an early effort by Seluleko Mahlambi coupled with an own goal by Sanele Barns in the second-half saw Stellenbosch leave Mbombela empty-handed.

— SuperSport Football ⚽️ (@SSFootball) November 2, 2025

The Rockets pushed for an opener during the embryonic stages of the first half and came close to breaking the deadlock through Puso Dithejane, who let off a left-footed attempt inside the area.

Dithejane did well to breach the Stellies backline moments after his initial attempt and managed to assist Mahlambi with the cross into the danger zone before the attacker headed the ball home to give Galaxy the lead in the seventh minute.

Devin Titus and Lehlogonolo Mojela attempted to make things happen on a couple of occasions throughout the first 45 but their efforts proved to be futile as Galaxy held on to preserve their lead at the break.

Stellenbosch took the direct route in trying to get on the scoresheet after the restart, after which Barns had a go at the Galaxy goalkeeper from outside the area following a corner. With Barns’ effort going wide, the Cape Winelands side battled to make the most of their chances thereafter.

It was more of the same for Stellenbosch as the hour-mark approached and created a couple of scoring chances through the likes of Khomotjo Lekoloane and Mojela. As they held most of the ball midway through the second-half.

Despite their dominance on the ball, Galaxy had their lead increased in the 62nd minute after Barns turned the ball into his own net as Stellies’ misery began to pile up.

Stellenbosch piled on the pressure during the closing quarter of the match but were often let down at the final hurdle. Holding on, the Rockets kicked into game management mode with Stellies’ bossing the possession count.

Nonetheless, Galaxy did enough to see the game out with maximum points in the bag along with a clean sheet to their name.

TS Galaxy: (1) 2 (Mahlambi 7’, Barns OG 62’)

Stellenbosch FC: (0) 0

TS Galaxy: Ira, Fisher, Mahlangu (Silva 67’), Ndamane, Letsoenyo, Dlamini (Mbunjana 81’), Maduna, Mvelase (Mgaga 87’), Dithejane (Keita 80’), Zindoga, Mahlambi (Ouamri 88’)

Stellenbosch FC: Stephens, Moloisane, Nkwali, Manafov, Mokobodi (Jabaar 86’), Khiba, Mthiyane (Lekoloane 46’), Barns, Titus (Nku 46’), De Jong (Langelihle 67’), Mojela (Cupido 67’)

Mamelodi Sundowns will be hoping to clear a backlog of injuries ahead of Wednesday’s Betway Premiership clash at home to TS Galaxy, which coach Miguel Cardoso said had retarded their chances against Orlando Pirates on Saturday.

Cardoso said his options for the top-of-the-table clash against Pirates at Loftus Versfeld, which ended in a 1-1 draw, had been restricted by a litany of injuries, especially among his attackers.

Iqraam Rayners was returning from injury and so was only used as a substitute for the last 12 minutes on Saturday.

“Unfortunately, he just trained two days, so he could not play for more than 20 minutes at a sustainable level for the demands of the game,” explained Cardoso.

“Lebo Mothiba, unfortunately, got injured this week. Themba Zwane is injured. (Thapelo) Morena could not play because he's injured.

“(Miguel) Reisinho was suspended, with the red card (against Marumo Gallants). Kutlwano (Letlhaku) has also an injury on the foot.

“So we didn't have a lot of power in terms of attack. So there's a moment (against Pirates) that we felt, okay, now we can go more, but then there weren’t any players to put into the attack,” added Cardoso.

For the midweek clash with Galaxy, Sundowns will have Teboho Mokoena back from suspension. An accumulation of yellow cards meant he missed the Pirates clash with a one-game ban.

Orlando Pirates coach Abdeslam Ouaddou felt his side should have come away with all three points from Saturday’s Betway Premiership ‘classico’ against champions Mamelodi Sundowns, which ended in a 1-1 stalemate at Loftus Versfeld on Saturday.

Pirates fought back after conceding a 20th minute goal to Peter Shalulile to end Sundowns’ 18-match winning streak at home in the league.

Camren Dansin’s spectacular 35th minute equaliser left Pirates still three points behind Sundowns in the league standings but with two games in hand.

“We started slowly, Sundowns put us in trouble in terms of building, they managed to find the free player in the middle,” said Ouaddou in his synopsis of the game.

”We had a problem with (Marcelo) Allende, Nuno Santos, (Bathusi) Aubaas in the middle, because they were trying to overload, which we had prepared for, but I thought that we were not aggressive enough to prevent them from the building.

“But we made some changes in order to be more dangerous in the transitions. And it worked because we created the most chances and I was so happy about the second half, the way that we played and how we respected the game plan.

“To be honest, I think it's a game that we should have won regarding the number of chances that we have created. And today, I think, to be honest, it should be a victory for Orlando Pirates,” Ouaddou said.

“But let's go home with this point. Let's not be too tough on our boys. They did well. And let's go to fight for the next games that we had in hand and let's go to take the lead of this league,” he added.

A third successive draw between Mamelodi Sundowns and Orlando Pirates showed there was little to chose between the two sides this season, said the champions’ coach Miguel Cardoso.

Pirates came from behind for a third time this season to hold Sundowns to a 1-1 draw in their Betway Premiership clash at Loftus Versfeld on Saturday.

The two sides also drew 1-1 in each of their MTN8 semifinals in August and look as if the are going to go head-to-head in a closely contested season.

“ I think the result is quite fair, considering what we saw, the more dominant Sundowns, and Pirates playing as we had seen from them in their previous matches,” said Cardoso after the game.

“Third match, third draw, same result. It means that the teams are very equal in the moment. They play differently, but they have their capacities and we'll have for sure a competition this season.

“I remember I predicted at the PSL launch event that this championship will have a different story,” added Cardoso.

Pirates been runners-up to Sundowns in the last three campaigns – 12 points behind last season in a 28-game campaign but a record-breaking 23 points adrift in 2024 and in 2023 Sundowns finished 16 points clear of the Buccaneers.

“It will be much more equal until the end,” Sundowns’ coach predicted of this season.

Cardoso admitted Saturday’s encounter would not go down as a classic.

“It was not the best football played by both teams, but these kinds of matches are like that. I think the match, basically, was what I predicted in terms of its pattern, played with a lot of emotion,” he added.

Chippa United’s woes in the Betway Premiership continued on Saturday evening when they were handed a 3-0 beating by AmaZulu FC at the Buffalo City Stadium.

The Chilli Boys suffered a third successive loss – and extended their winless run to six matches – across all competitions, after Usuthu were inspired to victory by a brace of goals from Hendrick Ekstein.

Chippa remained rooted to the foot of the Premiership log with just six points from 11 matches (three points from the safety of 14th place, currently occupied by Stellenbosch FC), while AmaZulu are fifth on 18 points from 10 matches – just four points off the pace of leaders Mamelodi Sundowns, having played a game less than the table toppers.

Chippa had an early chance to take the lead when they were awarded a soft penalty, but Goodman Mosele’s strike from the spot was well saved by AmaZulu goalkeeper Darren Johnson.

The hosts went on to dominate possession and territory for most of the first half, though they struggled to find a way through the visiting team’s defence.

Chippa’s patience had already begun to wane by the half-hour mark, when defender Idumba Fasika let fly from long range and forced a sharp save from Johnson to keep the score line blank.

AmaZulu then claimed the lead against the run of play in the 42nd minute, with Nkosikhona Radebe turning defence into attack down the right flank before squaring for Hendrick Ekstein, who scored with a composed side-footed finish for 1-0.

A goal up at the break, Usuthu needed just eight minutes of the second half to double their advantage. Substitute Tebogo Mashigo did great work to hold up the ball in the penalty area before picking out the late run of Athini Maqokolo, who drove to the goal mouth with three defenders around him before passing the ball beyond Stanley Nwabali for 2-0.

Nwabali really should have done more to apply pressure for the second goal, but he then made up for that with two excellent saves to deny Ekstein and Mashigo around the hour mark, keeping the Chilli Boys clinging to life in the match.

However, AmaZulu effectively ended the game as a contest when Ekstein scored from the penalty spot in the 66th minute. Maqokolo earned the spot kick with a burst of pace down the left side of the 18-yard area, drawing a clumsy foul from Harold Majadibodu.

The final quarter of the game saw Usuthu throttle down, defend their own box and control the game – with Chippa unable to fashion any clear chances to spark hopes of a comeback.

The teams will return to Betway Premiership action next midweek, with AmaZulu hosting Polokwane City, and Chippa United welcoming Magesi FC – both on the evening of Tuesday 4 November.

Chippa United 0

Richards Bay took advantage of adverse weather conditions as they battled back from behind to clinch a 1-1 draw with Polokwane City at the Old Peter Mokaba Stadium on Saturday.

Rise And Shine led 1-0 at the break courtesy of Mokibelo Ramabu's 31st-minute opener, but lightning caused a lengthy delay and the Natal Rich Boyz came out with renewed purpose in the second half.

Gabadinho Mhango eventually equalised from the penalty spot in the 86th minute to take Ronnie Gabriel's side three points clear of the bottom two in 12th place, with Polokwane leapfrogging Durban City into fifth position.

Both teams were targeting a return to winning ways, with City having been beaten 1-0 by Orlando Pirates on October 22, while Richards Bay suffered a 2-1 defeat against Orbit College five days prior.

The hosts just shaved the possession stakes in the first half and they made better use of the ball, creating more than double the amount of chances as did the Natal Rich Boyz.

 

Brian Bwire was called into action first through, when he turned Thabisa Ndelu's shot behind for a corner on 20 minutes following good work from Mhango to pick out the midfielder inside the box.

However, the breakthrough came at the other end 11 minutes later as Ramabu slotted home to make it two goals in three games for Rise And Shine.

The woodwork also came to Ian Otieno's rescue and the Limpopo outfit went into the interval one goal to the good.

The game was then delayed by lightning and it seemed to stymie City's momentum as the visitors started to create much more chances as the second half progressed.

Bwire was required to make two saves and Mfundo Thikazi went close with a strike that flashed over the crossbar on 77 minutes after Mhango and Knox Mutizwa linked up well to set him up.

Richards Bay were presented with a golden opportunity to restore parity when Lundi Mahala was brought down inside the box and Mhango kept his cool to convert the resulting penalty with four minutes left on the clock and earn his team a share of the spoils.

Polokwane City (1) 1 (Ramabu 31')

Polokwane City: B. Bwire, T. Matuludi, M. Mvundlela, L. Nkaki, T. Nkwe, M. Kambala, M. Ramabu, N. Maphangule, B. Dlamini (R. Daniels 80'), S. Tshabalala (L. Mashiane 87'), M. Seketso (S. Kelepu 80').

Orbit College recorded back-to-back wins in the Betway Premiership for the first time after they ran out 3-1 victors over Magesi at Olympia Park on Saturday.

The clash in Rustenburg had it all, as Monnapule Saleng opened the scoring from the penalty spot on the stroke of halftime before Thuso Moleleki and Mbulelo Wagaba extended the Mswenko Boyz's lead in the second half.

Katlego Mkhabela was then given his marching orders on 64 minutes and Dikwena tsa Meetse took swift advantage when Edmore Chirambadare reduced the deficit six minutes later.

Pogiso Makhoye's side held on, though, to claim a precious three points as they climbed up to 11th place, four points clear of Magesi, who remain second from bottom in the standings.

Orbit College were looking to build on their 2-1 win over Richards Bay on October 17 which gave them some breathing space to the relegation zone, while John Maduka's side managed to arrest a two-game losing streak with a 2-1 success against TS Galaxy one day later.

The visitors dominated the possession in the first half and also had more attempts at goal, but they only tested Sabelo Nkomo on one occasion after hitting the target on the quarter-hour mark.

 

Moleleki was presented with a chance at the other end four minutes later, only to fire wayward and Saleng also missed the target after cutting inside on 41 minutes.

However, the Orlando Pirates loanee made amends soon afterwards when the hosts were awarded a penalty in added time and he beat Elvis Chipezeze from 12 yards out to register his second goal of the season.

Magesi put early pressure on the opposition after winning a corner in the opening minute of the second half, but it was the Mswenko Boyz who doubled their advantage on 52 minutes through Moleleki.

The midfielder then turned provider as he set up Wagaba nine minutes later to give the top-flight newcomers a three-goal cushion, although they suffered a setback moments later with the dismissal of Mkhabela for a second yellow card.

Dikwena tsa Meetse didn't take long to capitalise on the extra man after Edmore Chirambadare pulled one back on 70 minutes to set up a nervy finish to the game.

The home goal came under threat again a couple of minutes later, but Nkomo was on hand to make the save and ensure there would be no way back for the Limpopo outfit.

Orlando Pirates edged closer to Mamelodi Sundowns at the top of the Betway Premiership table thanks to Camren Dansin as the two sides drew 1-1 at Loftus Versfeld Stadium in Pretoria on Saturday.

The 20-year-old opened his senior account with a beautiful strike to pull the Buccaneers level in just his second start for the club’s first team.

Sundowns stay at the top of the table with 22 points from 11 games, while Pirates moved level with Kaizer Chiefs on points but edge their rivals on goal difference to claim third place with 19 points.

The Brazilians had to make do without Teboho Mokoena and Miguel Reisinho - who were serving suspensions - and Malibongwe Khoza, who is expected to return from an ankle injury soon.

Peter Shalulile kept his spot in the starting 11, while Iqraam Rayners came off the bench having not played since being withdrawn from the Bafana Bafana squad on 7 October due to medical reasons.

Pirates head coach Abdeslam Ouaddou opted to leave Bafana Bafana midfielders Patrick Maswanganyi, Thalente Mbatha and Sipho Mbule on the bench in favour of Sihle Nduli, Masindi Nemtajela and Dansin.

The visitors enjoyed the better of the chances in the opening stages, with Evidence Makgopa’s effort from the left of the box sailing narrowly over the bar in the 6th minute.

 

Sundowns had a chance to strike in the 14th minute as Aubrey Modiba found Shalulile open in the box. The striker could not get enough on his header to trouble Sipho Chaine in goal.

Shalulile found the back of the net four minutes later, handing the home side an early lead with his fifth goal of the season in all competitions. Arthur Sales squared the ball for the Namibian international, whose first effort was kept out by Chaine. However, the goalkeeper could not recover in time to block Shalulile’s second attempt, which crept past Seema on the goalline.

Pirates drew level in the 36th minute through Dansin, who bagged his first senior goal in spectacular fashion. Sundowns’ corner clearance fell to the 20-year-old at the edge of the area who hit it first time, producing a rocket of a volley which went in off of the underside of the crossbar.

The Buccaneers squandered a golden opportunity to take the lead in the 50th minute as Lebone Seema found himself one-on-one with Williams, having all the time in the world. The defender attempt to beat Williams at the near post but was denied.

Shalulile came close to a second goal in the 55th minute as Khuliso Mudau slipped him the ball in the box, but Sihle Nduli bravely stepped across to block his effort.

In the 73rd minute, Oswin Appollis broke on the counter after winning the ball in midfield. The winger picked out Tshepang Moremi, who fired a shot from just outsude the area but could not beat Williams.

Both teams are back in Betway Premiership action on Wednesday as Sundowns will return to Loftus to face TS Galaxy, while Pirates will travel to the King Goodwill Zwelithini Stadium in Durban to face Lamotville Golden Arrows.

Mamelodi Sundowns (1) 1 (Shalulile 20’)

Siwelele FC needed a late goal to secure a narrow 1-0 Betway Premiership victory over Sekhukhune United at the Dr Petrus Molemela Stadium on Friday night.

The victory elevated Siwelele to the 12th spot in the league standings, having 11 points from 11 matches.

Coach Lehlohonolo Seema's side will travel to Cape Town, where they are scheduled to lock horns with Stellenbosch FC in another league game on 5 November.

Babina Noko, on the other hand, remained second in the standings, having accumulated 20 points from 10 matches.

The Limpopo side will be determined to get their bid to win the league title back on track when they play host to Richards Bay on 4 November.

Siwelele got off to a promising start and Siviwe Magidigidi fired the game's first shot on target - forcing goalkeeper Manuel Sapunga into making a smart save in the 10th minute.

However, the two teams then struggled to keep their attempts at goal on target and the score was 0-0 during the halftime break.

With his side struggling upfront after the restart, Eric Tinkler decided to make a double substitution in the 63rd minute.

The Sekhukhune head coach introduced the attack-minded duo of Ronaldo Maarman and Sphiwe Mahlangu as the visitors looked to break the deadlock.

However, it was the hosts who snatched a late winning goal with 16 minutes left on the clock.

SuperSport United academy products combined to hand Siwelele a 1-0 win over Sekhukhune as Aphiwe Baliti set up Siviwe Magidigidi and the South Africa under-20 international netted his third goal of the season.

Kaizer Chiefs recorded their first win in five Betway Premiership outings after they struck at the death to beat Durban City 1-0 at the Moses Mabhida Stadium on Friday.

Flavio Silva stepped off the bench to head home in the 88th minute as the Glamour Boys halted a four-game winless run to move up to third place in the standings, one point ahead of arch-rivals Orlando Pirates, who face Mamelodi Sundowns on Saturday, 1 November.

Gavin Hunt's side have now suffered back-to-back defeats and they remain tied with Polokwane City (6th) and AmaZulu (7th) on 15 points in fifth position.

Both teams were looking to get back on the winning trail, with City having lost 1-0 to Usuthu on 18 October, while Chiefs had to settle for a 0-0 draw against Siwelele four days later.

Amakhosi bossed possession in the first half and had slightly more shots at goal, but they didn't really trouble Darren Keet.

The hosts threatened first when Mfanafuthi Mkhize controlled Kyle Jurgens's ball into the box and fired over on the half-volley in the 13th minute.

Mfundo Vilakazi then failed to hit the target from a free-kick on 21 minutes after he was fouled outside the area in a dangerous position and Joslin Kamatuka should perhaps have done better at the other end 13 minutes later as he sent a volley off target after pouncing on a loose ball.

It remained goalless at the break, but the Citizens started brightly in the second half in a bid to make the breakthrough, with Fezile Gcaba shooting wide at the back post on 52 minutes before Trevor Mokwena also failed to test Brandon Petersen from inside the box two minutes later following good work from Jurgens to set him up.

The Soweto giants continued to see far more of the ball and they went close to the opener on 71 minutes when Makabi Lilepo steered a header inches over the crossbar from Gaston Sirino's fine cross, although they survived a scare four minutes from time after City had a potential winner ruled out for offside.

The near-goal jolted them into action and substitute Silva scored at the other end just two minutes later with a header after getting on the end of another superb Sirino cross.

It may not look like the case when you glance at the Betway Premiership standings, but for champions Mamelodi Sundowns, this campaign is their worst start to a new season in six years.

Sundowns top the table with 21 points from 10 matches, but not since the 2019-20 season have they amassed as few points as their current tally after one-third of the campaign completed.

In contrast, Orlando Pirates’ record is their second best over the previous seven seasons, despite the fact that they lost their opening two games of the league campaign in August to Marumo Gallants and Sekhukhune United.

Since then, they have won six on the trot, all without conceding, and sit on 18 points from eight matches, with two games in hand on Sundowns.

Pirates had 21 points from their first eight games last season in a better start than this year but then faded along the way and, in the end, finished runners-up to Sundowns by 12 points.

Pirates have ended second in their last three Premiership campaigns, and on each occasion, it has been a runaway triumph for the Brazilians.

But it could be a lot closer this season. Sundowns have not started this poorly since the Covid-ravaged 2019-20 season when they had 18 points after their opening 10 league matches but then came from behind to snatch the title from Kaizer Chiefs on a dramatic last day. Chiefs had a double-digit points lead before the outbreak of other Covid-19 epidemics.

 

Two seasons ago in the 2023-24 campaign, Sundowns won all of their opening 10 matches of the campaign and went on to win the title by a record 23-point margin from Pirates in second place.

Orlando Pirates could draw level with Mamelodi Sundowns at the top of the Betway Premiership standings when the two sides clash at Loftus Versfeld on Saturday.

Kick-off is at 3:30pm CAT (SA, GMT+2).

CURRENT FORM

Mamelodi Sundowns sit top of the table in the Betway Premiership with 21 points from 10 games, losing one game, drawing three and winning six.

The reigning champions defeated Remo Stars of Nigeria 2-0 last weekend in the second leg of their CAF Champions League tie which saw Masandawana win 7-1 on aggregate.

With no Carling Knockout fixture to catch up on - as they have been knocked out of the competition - Masandawana should be well rested for the challenge ahead.

Pirates have had a mixed season in terms of results.

The Buccaneers have two games in hand in the Betway Premiership and sit just three points behind Sundowns on the log.

They could pull level with a game in hand with a win at Loftus on Saturday.

However, the Bucs crashed out of the CAF Champions League on penalties against Saint-Éloi Lupopo, losing on penalties in the second leg after a three-goal comeback from the Bucs.

They are back in the win column after beating reigning champions Magesi 2-1 in the Carling Knockout at home on Tuesday.

The two sides have met twice already this season in the MTN8, with both games standing at 1-1 after regulation time.

Pirates advanced to the final after winning 4-1 on penalties in the second leg, going on to win the competition for a fourth consecutive year.

TEAM NEWS

Sundowns will not be able to field midfield maestro Teboho Mokoena or new signing Miguel Reisinho as both players are serving suspensions, Mokoena for yellow cards accumulated and Reisinho for a red card received against Marumo Gallants.

Masandawana will also be without the injured Themba Zwane, Iqraam Rayners, Malibongwe Khoza and Mothobi Mvala.

Pirates could receive a boost as Deano van Rooyen was on the bench for the Buccaneers on Tuesday after picking up an injury early in the season.

However, midfielder Selaelo Rasebotja and defender Thabiso Sesane are not fully fit and ready, alongside Olisa Ndah, Makhehleni Makhaula and Tapelo Xoki.

Relebohile Mofokeng has also been absent after picking up an injury before the last international break in October.

WHAT WAS SAID

Orlando Pirates head coach Abdeslam Ouaddou expressed his frustration with his players’ lack of killer instinct in their 2-1 win over Magesi on Tuesday.

“As a coach, I want to attract the attention of my players that football is scoring goals. When you have the possibility to score goals, score goals. Like I told you just before, at the end of the league, every goal is very important.

“Don't joke. We are not here to joke. We are here to perform. We are here to give results. If somebody wants to enjoy, to joke, no problem. He can go to make five-a-side with his colleagues, but we are not here to joke. We are here to reach some targets.”

PLAYERS TO WATCH

Mamelodi Sundowns - Nuno Santos has gotten off to a great start for Sundowns. The Portuguese midfielder is a dangerous threat as both a playmaker and scorer, and will be a handful for the Orlando Pirates defence to deal with.

Orlando Pirates - Tshepang Moremi could be the key figure for the Buccaneers on Saturday. He scored the first goal against Magesi on Tuesday and has seven goals in 14 games across all competitions this season. His pace and ability to find the target will make him a serious threat to Masandawana.

Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates will both be on the road in matchday 11 of the ongoing 2025/26 Betway Premiership season.

The action will be headlined by a titanic clash between Pirates and Mamelodi Sundowns on Saturday, with the game set to be played in front of a sold-out crowd at the Loftus Versfeld Stadium.

This will be the third meeting between the two teams this season as they drew 1-1 twice in the two-legged MTN8 semifinal tie, but the Buccaneers overcame Masandawana 4-1 during a penalty shootout.

However, the last time Pirates faced Sundowns at the Loftus Versfeld Stadium, the reigning league champions claimed an emphatic 4-1 win in an enthralling league encounter played in February 2025.

Chiefs, on the other hand, have braced themselves for their first-ever meeting with PSL Premiership newcomers, Durban City, who have had a decent start to life in the local top-flight.

City are undefeated at home this season, as they prepare to host Chiefs at the Moses Mabhida Stadium on Friday, but Amakhosi are oozing with confidence after defeating DR Congo's AS Simba 3-1 last weekend.

Two matches will be played on Friday, with Sekhukhune United on a mission to reclaim the Betway Premiership's top spot when they travel to Bloemfontein, where they are scheduled to square off with Siwelele FC at Dr Molemela Stadium.
