Cape Town City FC strengthened their position in the First Division title race with a 2-1 away victory over Orbit College on Friday. The result extends their winning streak to three matches and keeps them firmly in the promotion hunt.
Friday's win lifts the club to third in the standings with 14 points from seven games. They now sit just three points behind league leaders Magesi, who they will host in a key fixture on Sunday, November 1. The team's recent form has been impressive, with four wins and a draw from their last five outings, a sequence that includes victories over Gomora United FC and The Bees.
This consistent run has been built on a solid defence and a productive attack. Cape Town City have scored 12 goals this season while conceding only seven, giving them a healthy goal difference of plus five. Their next challenge is the biggest of the campaign so far, a direct showdown with the table-toppers at home.
The club will look to carry this momentum into that key match. A win would see them potentially draw level on points with Magesi at the summit, dramatically tightening the title race.
