AmaZulu FC and Sekhukhune United meet in an intriguing MTN8 quarter-final at Chatsworth Stadium, with both sides chasing their first MTN8 trophy. AmaZulu finished fourth in the Betway Premiership last season and started the new campaign with a 1-0 win over Stellenbosch.

Sekhukhune also finished fourth last season and reached the MTN8 semi-finals in the previous campaign. They opened the new season with a 1-0 victory over Durban City FC and will be confident heading into this quarter-final. Recent meetings have been closely contested, with the last two ending in draws. With little separating the sides, another tight encounter is expected.

Why We Like This Bet

There is very little between these two teams and their recent head-to-head record points towards another close encounter. Both sides started the new season with 1-0 victories, while their last two meetings ended in draws. With a place in the MTN8 semi-finals at stake, we expect both teams to be cautious and difficult to break down. AmaZulu have home advantage,and we feel this will be enough to give them a 1-0 win. 

Prediction: Amazulu to win 1-0
