Cape Town City form and stats

Let's have a look at how Cape Town City performed last season in the Premier League: They landed a 2nd position in the league table after playing out 12 victories, 13 draws and 5 defeats. In total they scored 32 and conceded 24 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 4 - drew 7 and lost 4 with 10/11 goals scored/conceded.

Cape Town City aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 277 league minutes without a goal. Mdantsane was the last player to find the net.

Home advantage was not enough for Cape in their previous game as they lost hosting Mamelodi Sundowns, 0-2.

Prior to that match, the Cape Town City manager Tinkler faced defeat when travelling to Stellenbosch and losing 0-1.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Cape Town City manager Tinkler as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against AmaZulu.

Head 2 Head

Cape Town City have put together a sequence of 5 consecutive games without defeat (2-3-0) when facing Swallows.
