Frequently Asked Questions

Relebohile Mofokeng leads with 2 goals across 7 qualifying appearances (0.29/g, 14% hit rate). The goal-rate table below ranks every South Africa player by goals per qualifying appearance (≥20 minutes) and six-game form.

How does South Africa's scoring profile look this season?

South Africa are averaging 1.1 goals per game over 10 games and concede 0.8 for a match-total of 1.9. That ranks 21st of 50 for team goals scored. They're generating 10.6 shots/g from 7.4 key passes/g.

Why aren't there any Bet365 prices on this page?

The Bet365 player markets feed currently ships odds for Shots, Shots on Target, Tackles, Fouls and Yellow Cards. Anytime-scorer prices are not yet wired up; the chip will read “no priced market” until that's added.

How is the goals matchup read calculated?

Goals matchup blends our attackers' scoring rate (50%) with the opposition's goals conceded per game (50%). For the upcoming fixture against Kenya, the page weights each South Africa attacker against the opposition's last-season goals-conceded rate.

Where do these goal stats come from?

All numbers come from match-level Sportmonks data ingested into Statz - 10 South Africa fixtures in the active window for 2026.

Why is finishing rate (Goals / SOT) shown?

South Africa are currently finishing at 34% - that's the share of their shots on target that beat the keeper. Above-average finishing without a matching xG signal usually regresses; pair this with shots/g and key passes/g to read whether the goals trend is sustainable.
