Mosimane predicts a draw in Soweto Derby

Mamelodi Sundowns coach Pitso Mosimane seems to be convinced that Saturday’s Soweto derby between Orlando Pirates and Kaizer Chiefs could end in draw.


The Brazilians are sitting four points clear of second placed Pirates at the top of the Absa Premiership, while Chiefs are third.

A draw between the two chasers would do Sundowns a huge favour in their bid for a third league title in five seasons.

Mosimane predicts that the Sea Robbers and Amakhosi will drop points on Saturday.

“We are still on pole position. How can I worry about people who still have to pass me because I have got the lead… it is not a really big convincing lead, but who is convincing,” said Mosimane.

“The games are getting lesser and the Soweto derby is coming, maybe the point against SuperSport United was good because we know what is going to happen in the Soweto derby. How do we know that Kaizer Chiefs are going to beat Orlando Pirates,” he added.
