Ashwin Sutton, the former head coach of Casric Stars FC, has shared his thoughts on how the team can secure victory in the ongoing PSL play-offs.
Casric, Orbit College FC, and Cape Town City FC are all tied with two points each, and each team has two matches remaining in the mini-league.
Casric Stars will host Orbit College FC at their home ground, Solomon Mahlangu Stadium, in KwaMhlanga, Mpumalanga province, for their next match.
A win for Casric would greatly enhance their chances of being promoted to the Betway Premiership.
"The play-offs are wide open, especially after the last result," Sutton tells KickOff.
"All three teams have faced each other now, and there's still one round of games left. I think the play-offs will conclude with a total of seven points.
"The situation definitely favours Casric. They played the first game, and now they will play the last game against City. Consider how they performed in their previous match; they have the opportunity to advance if they execute well. They have a well-balanced team that can win this play-offs," he added.
"The schedule benefits Casric as they played the first and will also play the last game. Therefore, regardless of what happens in between, they can adjust their strategy as needed.
"In play-offs, it’s all about accumulating points. The outcome is in Casric's hands."
The match at Solomon Mahlangu Stadium is scheduled to kick off at 15:00 on Saturday.
