Green Mamba bring an equally steady run: three straight wins in their most recent outings, 3-2 against Tabankulu, 2-1 away at Manzini Wanderers and 1-0 against Sisonkhe, preceded by two away draws, 1-1 with Rangers FC and 0-0 with Royal Leopards. Seven goals scored and four conceded across the five matches, with two games finished without conceding. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off.
