TS Galaxy — known to fans as The Rockets — are Mpumalanga's flagship PSL club. Founded in 1990 in Tembisa and later relocated, TS Galaxy made national headlines in 2019 when, as a then-NFD club, they won the Nedbank Cup — the first second-division team in South African history to lift a senior knockout trophy. Promotion to the top flight followed and Galaxy have since established themselves as a fixture in the Betway Premiership, playing home matches at the impressive Mbombela Stadium (capacity 43 500), built for the 2010 FIFA World Cup.
The 2025/26 season has been a transitional one for Galaxy. After several years of stable mid-table finishes, the club sit on 31 points with one matchday remaining, comfortably clear of the relegation zone but well off the European qualification places. Veteran owner-chairman Tim Sukazi has presided over a quietly active transfer window each off-season, and the club's recruitment pipeline from the Nedbank Cup era still produces useful pieces for the first team.
TS Galaxy's last ten league matches have produced classic mid-table reading: a couple of statement wins (including a 3-1 win at home over Mbombela visitors in November 2025), a handful of frustrating draws and occasional defeats away to the Gauteng top three. Home form at Mbombela Stadium has been the steadier of the two — Galaxy are difficult to beat on their own turf even when chances are limited.
Seluleko Mahlambi leads the Galaxy scoring chart with 6 league goals. Puso Dithejane and Victor Letsoalo have chipped in with 4 each, and Croatian forward Davor Zajmovic has provided physical presence and crucial goals against the top three. Keagan Dolly, the experienced former Sundowns and Montpellier forward, has been a creative outlet from a deeper role.
Tactically, Galaxy are pragmatic: a settled back four, two defensive midfielders, and a quick, direct attacking trio. Goals tend to come from set pieces, transitions and well-worked moves down the right.
The Rockets are the kind of team whose 1X2 markets are slightly mispriced because they sit outside the headline media coverage of the Gauteng-Durban-Cape clubs.
We tend to fade Galaxy on the straight away win against fellow mid-table sides — the 3.00+ prices look attractive but the road record is built on draws, not wins.
