Cape Town Spurs host Chippa United in the DSTV Premiership on Friday night and we take a look at the game from a betting angle.
Mamelodi Sundowns have moved 8 points clear at the top of the table with a 100% record after 5 games. The teams below them admittedly have 2 games in hand, but it is already starting to look like another Title for Sundowns is a formality.
This is reflected in the Outright Betting where Sundowns are trading at 1/6 ahead of Orlando Pirates 10/1, SuperSport United 12/1 and Kaizer Chiefs are 20/1. Cape Town City came in to the season optimistic of putting up a challenge, but back-to-back defeats have seen them just out to 25/1 for the Title.

CAPE TOWN SPURS
Newcomers, Cape Town Spurs have found life in the PSL tough and they have yet to get a point after 3 matches.
They were away to TS Galaxy in their opener going down 1-0 and they failed to find the net at home against Sekhukhune losing 2-0. Spurs were away to fellow newcomers, Polokwane in their last match with the hosts starting 13/10 favourites. The result was never really in doubt with Polokwane taking the lead in the 15th minute and adding to that lead with goals in the 61st and 78th. Cape Town Spurs pulled one back in the 80th minute, but it was too little too late to rescue anything from the game.
CHIPPA UNITED
Chippa United are currently 12th on the log with 3 points after 4 matches and all of those have been draws. It started with goalless draws away at Chiefs and at home to TS Galaxy before they held Orlando Pirates to a 1-1 draw at home. Their last match was at home to Champions, Mamelodi Sundowns, they were 11/2 to cause an upset. They fought hard early, but Sundowns scored 2 goals before the break and then closed up shop to consign Chippa United to their first defeat of the season.

VERDICT
Goals should be at a premium in this game, but bookmakers are on to this and under 2.5 goals is trading at under 5/10. Newcomers to the PSL often start quickly and then fade away, but that hasn’t happened with Cape Town Spurs who are under pressure from the gun.
These sides have only scored 2 goals between them in 7 matches and I am prepared to bet that we don’t get more than a goal in this one.
Suggested Bet: Under 1.5 goals at 15/10
If there is one goal in the game I suspect it is going to be scored by Chippa United and will back the 0-1 correct score at 7/1
Suggested Bet: Correct Score 0-1 at 7-1
