Kaizer Chiefs - Form analysis: Results are quite weak
The "Chiefs" used to at least make it to the top 5 in previous years. Now, they only managed to win against SuperSport United at the end of April. Before that, they had one draw and four defeats, during which their players only scored against Orlando Pirates - but still ended up losing to them. The match against Mamelodi ended predictably with a 1-5 defeat.
TS Galaxy - Form analysis: Some improvement this season
The "Rockets" are a young team, founded only in 2015, but ambitious, with a Nedbank Cup victory and appearances in the African Confederation Cup. They were clearly not satisfied with their previous season's tenth-place finish, but Coach Ramovich continued to train them. And now, they are doing better. The top 3 is out of reach, but they can compete for fourth place. Especially noteworthy was the recent stretch of four wins in five matches. No one in South Africa can compete with Sundowns, so a 0-3 defeat, especially in Mamelodi, should be discounted.The previous round against Sekhukhune United was crucial - a direct competitor. The match was more about the battle than football, resulting in a predictable 0-0 draw.
