Both these teams have ambitions of playing their football on the continent next season and only a win will do if either of them maintains their current positions.

Here are markets to consider adding to your bet slip...

Both Teams to Score – Yes 57/50 

Stellenbosch have had no losses in their last three matches in all competitions. They played against Chippa United last time out. Cape Town City did the same when they faced Supersport United. Both teams got on the scoresheet but could not secure a second goal before the final whistle was blown. There is a lot riding on this game and both sides will need to give it their all if they are going to establish a strong hold in the race to secure a CAF spot in this season's DSTV Premiership campaign. Regardless of the result both these teams will find the back of the net.  

1st Half – 1st Goal Cape Town City 33/25 

Cape Town City will be boosted by the efforts of Khanyisa Mayo upfront who has scored 7 goals in his last 16 appearances in the league. He has found the back of the net in his last two appearances for City. He is a tricky customer and a player in form. You can expect him to make the difference exceedingly early on in this match.  

Total Goals – Over 2,5 37/27

Stellenbosch has not lost to this opponent in their last 6 encounters. The last two games ended in a win for Stellenbosch. That is partially down to Cape Town City’s ability to keep a clean sheet against Stellenbosch in their last 8 encounters. With a shot at second spot available in the league. We expect both teams to hold nothing back and come out guns blazing.
