Orlando Pirates vs Mamelodi Sundowns - Wednesday, 18 February 2026

league: South Africa - Betway Premiership

Orlando Pirates welcome Mamelodi Sundowns to Orlando Stadium in a Betway Premiership clash that already feels like a title barometer. Pirates come into this fixture riding a strong domestic wave, having recently brushed aside Tshakhuma Tsha Madzivhandila 4-1 and kept things tight at the back in league play. Their cup momentum is real too, after a professional Nedbank Cup win over TTM earlier in February that underlined their squad depth and attacking variety. With the Soweto giants sitting near the summit and looking increasingly comfortable in Miguel da Costa’s structure, this meeting with Sundowns is less about hype and more about confirming whether Pirates can consistently outthink and outwork the side that has defined South African dominance over the past decade.

Recent results suggest Orlando Pirates are building a balanced identity: ruthless when chances fall their way, but disciplined enough to manage games. The away victory over AmaZulu, sealed by a controlled 0-2 scoreline, showcased their ability to absorb pressure and then punish in transition. At home, the comfortable win against Magesi, another solid 2-0, highlighted how their pressing and set-piece routines are starting to click. Even the recent stalemate against Sekhukhune showed a maturity in game management rather than a lack of ambition. All of this feeds into a growing sense that Pirates are not just chasing Sundowns anymore—they are setting their own standard.

Siwelele vs Kaizer Chiefs - Wednesday, 18 February 2026

league: South Africa - Betway Premiership

Siwelele’s clash with Kaizer Chiefs in the Betway Premiership comes at a point in the season where every point feels heavier than the league table suggests. The fixture, scheduled for mid-February in South Africa’s top flight, has been framed in recent coverage as a meeting between a resurgent, hard‑working Siwelele side and a Chiefs outfit still trying to stitch together consistent performances. Discussions around both clubs in the past couple of months have centred on mentality, game management, and the pressure of expectations from demanding fan bases, turning this encounter into more than just another league game.

For Siwelele, recent league outings have underlined both their resilience and their occasional wastefulness in front of goal. Tight, hard‑running matches such as the trip to Polokwane, reflected in the preview for 1-0, and the earlier clash away to Richards Bay, covered in 2-1, show a team comfortable in battles decided by fine margins. Even the home meeting with Mamelodi Sundowns, highlighted in 1-1, suggested that Siwelele can stay organised against technically strong opponents. Those performances hint that, against Chiefs, they may again prioritise structure, discipline, and patience over reckless attacking.

Stellenbosch vs Magesi - Wednesday, 18 February 2026

league: South Africa - Betway Premiership

Stellenbosch welcome Magesi to the Danie Craven Stadium in a Betway Premiership clash that arrives at an interesting moment for both clubs. Over the past two months, Stellenbosch have juggled domestic duties with continental commitments, including a tough CAF Confederation Cup trip where they fell 2–0 away to Belouizdad in late January. Just days earlier, they had edged Sekhukhune United 1–0 on the road in the league, a result that underlined their ability to grind out narrow wins even when not fully in control. That mix of resilience and inconsistency makes this fixture feel finely balanced rather than a straightforward home banker.

Form-wise, Stellenbosch’s recent league sequence of losses and wins paints a picture of a side still searching for rhythm, yet capable of raising their level in key moments. Their away victory over Sekhukhune United on 20 January remains a timely reminder of their defensive organisation and set-piece threat, and it also ties into earlier domestic performances covered in previews such as Magesi and the home clash with Polokwane. Those matches showed how quickly Stellenbosch can transition from cautious containment to incisive attacking moves, especially down the flanks, which could be crucial against a Magesi side still adapting to the demands of top-flight football.

Winterthur vs St. Gallen - Wednesday, 18 February 2026

league: Switzerland - Super League

Winterthur have won 3 of their last 24 matches, and have suffered 16 losses and 5 draws over the same period. Over this period of 24 matches, Winterthur scored 28 goals and conceded 67. In their very last match, Winterthur played against the club and the match ended with a result of 1 - 6. For their part, FC St. Gallen obtained 13 victories in their last 24 meetings, for which they drew 4 points and conceded 7 losses. In its last match, FC St.

Gall faced the formation of for a final result of 0 - 0. Between Winterthur which is currently 12th in the Super Cup with a total record of 3 wins, 5 draws and 16 defeats, and FC St.Gall ranked 2nd in the Super Cup and presenting a total record of 13 wins, 4 draws and 7 defeats, we see the victory of FC St.Gall.

Celtic vs Stuttgart - Thursday, 19 February 2026

league: Europe - Europa League

Not at the level displayed over the last few seasons, Celtic did not really shine during the league phase by only taking 21st place in the regular season of this Europa League, far from the battle for the top 8. That said, the Scots were still able to preserve the essentials by validating their place for the play-offs thanks, in particular, to their last 2 rather successful performances against Bologna 0-0 and against Utrecht 4-2 in the last 2 days. In addition to being fairly average in Europe, the Glasgow-based club is struggling in the league where it should lose the title. 3rd in the Scottish Premiership, Celtic are 6 points behind the leader, Hearts, and only one behind their rival: Rangers. Victorious against Falkirk 2-0 and against Livingston 2-1, the locals will aim for 3 on Sunday against Kilmarnock. On the other side of the median, Stuttgart presents itself with some certainties before this double confrontation.

The Germans were indeed able to secure a good 11th place in the final ranking of the regular season of this Europa League with only one point behind the top 8. Beaten at Roma 2-0, the visitors were able to finish this first phase of the competition on a good note by dominating Young Boys 3-2. At the same time, VfB is on the verge of the top 5 in the Bundesliga after its surprise defeat at Sankt Pauli 2-1. The Swabians will want to recover next weekend at home against Cologne.

PAOK vs Celta Vigo - Thursday, 19 February 2026

league: Europe - Europa League

Losing to OL on the final day 4-2, PAOK Salonika had to settle for 17th place in the league phase, thus receiving the first round of this double confrontation. The defeat at Les Gones was also the only one suffered in 2026 in all competitions. This implies that this PAOK team is performing very well on the national scene, 3rd in the championship. Last weekend, in the league, the local team accumulated a second goalless draw in the elite against AEK Athens after that on the Aris turf. Newly, PAOK Salonika validated its ticket for the final of the national cup by offering itself Panathinaikos in the semi-final victory 3-0 on aggregate of the double-confrontation. It's quite simple, since the start of the season, at home, PAOK Salonika is quite simply undefeated in all competitions. Celta Vigo has been warned, it will have to be able to achieve an exploit to return to Balaidos with a sporting advantage.

Downside, the Galicians have not won in 4 away games, even losing to Real Sociedad in La Liga 3-1. Among these four matches without a victory, Vigo drew on the very hostile pitch of Red Star Belgrade in C3 1-1. In the process, in La Liga, the Spaniards were held to a draw by Getafe 0-0 and Espanyol Barcelona last weekend 2-2. Celta finished the league phase in 16th place with one more point on their evening opponent. It will be recalled that Claudio Giraldez's men lost in Bulgaria against Ludogorets 3-2 or Stuttgart 2-1. Only one victory out of the 4 matches played on the road during the league phase, in Croatia against Zagreb 0-3.

Chelsea vs Burnley - Saturday, 21 February 2026

league: England - Premier League

Eager to qualify for the next Champions League, Chelsea are currently 5th in the Premier League and are 1 point behind 4th place. Solid since the arrival on the bench of Liam Rosenior, the Blues have not lost any of their last five championship matches, 4 wins and 1 draw. After dominating Brentford 2-0, Crystal Palace 1-3, West Ham 3-2 and Wolverhampton 1-3, they were held back at home by Leeds 2-2. Last weekend, the London team easily got the better of Hull in the FA Cup 0-4. In the Champions League, Chelsea are waiting to know the identity of their opponent in the round of 16.

The return to the elite is proving very difficult for Burnley who today occupies 19th place in the Premier League with 9 points out of the first non-relegation place. On the last day, the Clarets regained some confidence by winning on the Crystal Palace pitch 2-3. They thus ended a very bad series of 16 matches without a victory in the championship, 5 draws and 11 defeats. Last weekend, Burnley were surprised, at home, by a resident of League One 3rd division, Mansfield, in the FA Cup 1-2.

Wolfsburg vs Augsburg - Saturday, 21 February 2026

league: Germany - Bundesliga

Be careful not to play too much with fire for this Wolfsburg team which is clearly not immune to enormous disillusionment at the end of the season. Only 15th in the standings, this team only has a small point lead over the first relegated team before the start of this 23rd day and it therefore risks experiencing difficult next few months if it does not accelerate a little. In search of a first success since January 14, VfL had been beaten 3 times by Mainz 3-1, Cologne 1-0 and by Dortmund 1-2 before stopping the bleeding last weekend by holding Leipzig to a draw 2-2. Opposite, FC Augsburg is very accustomed to its fierce struggles to maintain its position. But unlike his opponent today, he can count on a little more margin before starting the last 11 days of the championship since he is 6 units ahead of the play-off, Werder Bremen.

Rather in a good moment currently, the Bavarians have won 3 of their last 4 championship matches. After being able to defeat Bayern Munich 1-2 and Sankt Pauli 2-1, Manuel Baum's men were dominated by Mainz 2-0. But last weekend, they were able to resume their march forward to the detriment of the red lantern, FC Heidenheim 1-0.
