Back
Mamelodi Sundowns are back on top of the Betway Premiership after a strong start to the season. The Brazilians sit on 26 points from 10 matches, having won eight and drawn two. They have scored 27 goals and only let in nine, showing they mean business again this campaign.
Orlando Pirates are right behind them in second place. The Buccaneers have 25 points from nine games, with eight wins and one draw. They have not lost a single match and boast an impressive goal difference of 21 goals scored to just two conceded. This form has helped them pull 11 points clear of Kaizer Chiefs, who sit in fifth place on 14 points from nine matches. Chiefs have three wins, five draws and one loss so far.
AmaZulu remain in third place on 22 points from nine games. The Usuthu side has seven wins, one draw and one loss, with 13 goals scored and eight conceded. They continue to look like a solid side that can challenge for a top-three finish if they keep this up.
At the bottom of the log, Richards Bay are still without a win. The Bay have played nine matches and only managed three draws and six losses. They sit on just three points with a goal difference of 11 scored to 23 conceded. Their struggles continue as the season moves forward.
Further up the table, Milford hold fourth place on 18 points from 10 matches. Kaizer Chiefs are fifth, level on points with Sekhukhune United on 14 points. The rest of the log shows a tight battle in the middle and lower sections, with several teams still looking for consistency.
Sundowns and Pirates have set a high standard early on. Their defensive records and winning form put them in a strong position as more matches are played. AmaZulu are not far behind, while Chiefs will need to improve if they want to close the gap on the top teams. Richards Bay face a tough road ahead if they hope to pick up their first win soon.
The Betway Premiership remains competitive, but the top three have already created some distance. Fans will watch closely to see if Sundowns can hold onto first place and whether Pirates can maintain their strong run against the rest of the league.
