He then became the South African men&#8217;s national team assistant coach from 2006-2010. After the 2010 World Cup, SAFA decided to give him the head coaching job, he lasted only a couple of years. In 2012 he moved to Mamelodi Sundowns.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>On 13 June 2017, McCarthy was unveiled as the new Cape Town City head coach, replacing Eric Tinkler. It was a gamble for John Comitis because McCarthy had only one season experience as an assistant in the Belgian league.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Mamelodi Sundowns have a wealth of talent. Pitso Mosimane plays with two defensive midfielders, two ball playing-attacking fullbacks, and four attackers. He likes intelligent attacking midfielders who play quick one-two&#8217;s in between the lines. Those Number 10&#8217;s play narrow whilst his fullback provide the width.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>McCarthy said his favourite coach is Jose Mourinho as he played under him at Porto in Portugal. Benni Mccarthy plays pragmatic football like his idol. Solid at the back, athletic ball-winners in the midfield, and effective attackers.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Mamelodi Sundowns are third of the table two points behind Bidvest Wits with two games in hand. A win will see them leapfrog the Clever Boys into the first position. Cape Town City are fourth on the log three points behind Sundowns a win by three goals would see them go ahead of the Brazilians.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Sundowns have drawn two of their last three league games whilst City has won eight of their last ten games in all competitions. They are a team in form. However, the Citizens aren&#8217;t good traveller&#8217;s, they&#8217;re averaging 2.1 goals per game in their last 10 but only 0.7 goals in their last 10 away matches. They lost their last away game against Amazulu 1-0 and they got lucky to come away with a win at the FNB stadium against Kaizer Chiefs in the away game before that.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;d go with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bet.machibet777-app.com\/index.php\/bethome\/action\/viewevent\/eventid\/3421076\">odds<\/a> and put my money of Mamelodi Sundowns to win this game.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h4>BET: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bet.machibet777-app.com\/index.php\/bethome\/action\/viewevent\/eventid\/3421076\">Mamelodi Sundowns v Cape Town City<\/a><\/h4>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We compare to of the best Absa Premiership coaches.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":3967,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","beyondwords_generate_audio":"","beyondwords_project_id":"","beyondwords_content_id":"","beyondwords_preview_token":"","beyondwords_player_style":"","beyondwords_language_id":"","beyondwords_title_voice_id":"","beyondwords_body_voice_id":"","beyondwords_summary_voice_id":"","beyondwords_error_message":"","beyondwords_disabled":"","beyondwords_delete_content":"","beyondwords_podcast_id":"","beyondwords_hash":"","publish_post_to_speechkit":"","speechkit_hash":"","speechkit_generate_audio":"","speechkit_project_id":"","speechkit_podcast_id":"","speechkit_error_message":"","speechkit_disabled":"","speechkit_access_key":"","speechkit_error":"","speechkit_info":"","speechkit_response":"","speechkit_retries":"","speechkit_status":"","speechkit_updated_at":"","_speechkit_link":"","_speechkit_text":""},"categories":[969],"tags":[84,155,205,166,741,154,165,83,639,85,742,317],"yoast_head":"\n<title>PITSO v BENNI - COMPARING 2 OF SA\u2019S BEST COACHES - Bet Central<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Two of South Africa&#039;s best coaches square off in the Absa Premiership on Wednesday evening.
