The PCB’s strict recovery campaign against PSL stakeholders highlights ongoing financial issues within the league. The board has identified 4.7 billion in outstanding payments from various teams.
Mamelodi Sundowns have dominated recently, winning 12 of their last 14 PSL matches. They have also kept 6 clean sheets in their last 7 games. In contrast, Kaizer Chiefs have struggled, losing 5 of their last 7 matches against Sundowns and failing to score in their last 3 encounters.
Key statistics:
- Mamelodi Sundowns scored 20 goals in their last 10 matches.
- Kaizer Chiefs produced a notable 4–1 victory over Magesi.
- They also secured a 3–1 win at Orbit College.
The PCB initiated this recovery effort due to repeated delays in settling financial dues. The April 29 deadline for payments is fast approaching, adding urgency to the situation.
Yet, uncertainties linger regarding player availability. Khanyisa Mayo’s status remains unclear after his recent absence from the squad. Similarly, Zitha Kwinika’s participation is doubtful due to injury.
The ongoing financial challenges could impact both teams as they prepare for upcoming matches in the CAF Champions League. Mamelodi Sundowns need just three more wins to secure the PSL title again.
