SuperSport United form and stats
SuperSport United have secured 5 points from their first three home games in the Premier League. A decent catch, still with room for improvement.
The followers are hoping that SuperSport will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 1-2 away loss in the match against Kaizer Chiefs (placed 9th). The first defeat after collecting points through four league matches.
Before that match, a win away at Maritzburg United.The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how SuperSport United have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 7 matches with the results: Won 2, drawn 4 and lost 1.
Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Sekhukhune United are coming to town in three days.

Royal AM form and stats
It's gone fairly well in the Premier League away games so far for Royal AM with six points collected from three matches.

Before that, the victory at home against Highlanders in the CAF Confederations Cup (2-0). So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest.
