Last updated: July 2026. Season data below is the completed 2025/26 Betway Premiership.
TS Galaxy scored 30 goals in 2025/26 — more than sixth-placed Golden Arrows managed at home and away combined in some columns — and still finished twelfth, because they conceded 38. The Rockets are an entertaining team to watch and a difficult one to back.
They open 2026/27 away at Siwelele on 2 August, and gain a provincial derby this season: promoted Kruger United now share Mbombela Stadium with them.
Club Overview
Based in Mbombela, Mpumalanga, TS Galaxy — The Rockets — announced themselves by winning the Nedbank Cup as a second-tier side and have been an established top-flight presence since. Home matches are at Mbombela Stadium (capacity 43,500), a 2010 World Cup venue.
What the 2025/26 Numbers Actually Say
Computed from the full season results grid; the totals reconcile exactly with the official final table.
| Played | W-D-L | Goals for | Goals against | Points per game |
|---|
| Home | 15 | 6-3-6 | 17 | 19 | 1.40 |
| Away | 15 | 2-5-8 | 13 | 19 | 0.73 |
Two features define the season:
- A negative goal difference at home (17 for, 19 against) despite six home wins — the same pattern as Stellenbosch. Galaxy's home matches were open rather than controlled.
- A 0.67 points-per-game home-away gap, with only two away wins in fifteen and 19 conceded on the road.
Across the season, 33% of their matches went over 2.5 goals and 43% saw both teams score — above the league average on both counts in a division where most clubs sit well below it.
What That Means for Betting
Galaxy are one of the league's better goals-market clubs. In a division where the median team clears 2.5 goals in about a quarter of its matches, a third is meaningful. Both ends of the pitch contribute: they score enough to be interesting and concede enough to be unreliable.
The away win is the market to avoid. Two wins from fifteen, conceding at 1.27 per match, is a poor road record. Backing Galaxy away is betting against a clear pattern.
At home they are live but volatile. Six wins and six defeats from fifteen means the home price is closer to a coin flip than the venue suggests. That volatility suits goals markets more than the win line.
Caveat: twelfth place with a −8 goal difference is a mid-table finish that could move in either direction with modest squad change.
2026/27 Outlook
Galaxy travel to Siwelele on 2 August (18:00), then host Mamelodi Sundowns at Mbombela on 11 August. The season's new feature is the Mpumalanga derby: Kruger United's promotion gives the province a second top-flight club, and the confirmed fixture list has Kruger playing their home matches at Mbombela Stadium too.
