Showmax to stream MTN8 semi-finals and final

Update, 27 August 2024: The first semi-final (Cape Town City vs Orlando Pirates) for 27 August 2024 has been postponed due to weather, and will be played on Wednesday, 28 August 2024 at 19:00 CAT.

Showmax, the leading streaming service in Africa, is thrilled to announce that it will be live streaming the MTN8 semi-finals and final. Football fans across the continent can catch all the action, including both legs of the two semi-finals and the highly anticipated final, on Showmax PL from 27 August 2024.

In the first semi-final, Cape Town City will go head-to-head with Orlando Pirates at Cape Town Stadium, while the return leg sees the Cape outfit travelling to Soweto.

Pirates are aiming for their third consecutive MTN8 title, while City will be looking to secure their second triumph in the competition.

The second semi-final will see Mamelodi Sundowns battle it out with Stellenbosch FC. Sundowns, the reigning Premier Soccer League champions, will face Stellenbosch FC at the Lucas Moripe Stadium in the first leg, while the second leg will be played at the Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban.

Sundowns have won the MTN8 four times, while Stellenbosch FC will be eager to make their mark in the tournament.

Showmax is offering these games as a special event, available to all Showmax PL subscribers at no additional cost. This means football enthusiasts can enjoy the excitement and drama of the MTN8 without breaking the bank.

If Pirates and Sundowns win their respective semi-finals, we will witness a repeat of the thrilling 2023 MTN8 final, where Pirates emerged victorious.

Pirates will be looking to continue their dominance in the competition. The Soweto giants have a strong squad and are determined to defend their title. Cape Town City, on the other hand, will be hoping to upset the favourites and reach the final.

Sundowns, the reigning PSL champions, are always a force to be reckoned with. They have a talented squad and are expected to be strong contenders for the MTN8 title.

Stellenbosch FC, however, have been making strides in recent seasons and will be looking to prove themselves against the defending champions.
