The Form Line
Magesi finished 15th in the regular season - that is what landed them in the playoff. They started the playoffs with a 2-0 win over Cape Town City but lost 1-0 to Milford on 3 June with the late Radebe goal. The squad has the PSL pedigree but the season-long form was poor. Hollywoodbets and Betway have Magesi at 1.85 to 2.05 to win at home.
Milford have come through from the Motsepe Foundation Championship without losing a playoff fixture. They beat Cape Town City 1-0 in matchday one and beat Magesi 1-0 in matchday two. The defensive structure has been the strongest part of their playoff campaign - they have conceded once in three matches across the round-robin.
