The 2025/26 Betway Premiership season has entered its final third of the season and there’s a mad scramble for bragging rights as the country’s top goal scorer.
Last season, Mamelodi Sundowns’ Lucas Ribeiro Costa proved to be the deadliest striker in the country with 16 goals.
FIFA break
It’s unlikely that anyone will break – or come even close – the all-time PSL record of 25 goals held by Zambia’s Collins Mbesuma while playing for Kaizer Chiefs in the 2004/05 season.
Heading into the next FIFA international break, only two players have double-digit goals this campaign.
Fixtures will resume on Tuesday, 7 April.
