MatchPlay 14 tips, from results rather than guesses
This site keeps 19 settled MatchPlay 14 pools. Across 266 scored matches, the home win came up 41% of the time. That is the honest starting point for a MatchPlay 14 tip. Nobody can tell you next week's card. But the cards this operator picks do have a shape, and it is below.
We worked these out from 19 settled MatchPlay 14 pools, collected up to Thursday 17 September 2026. They use the operator's own published winning combinations and match scores. Every build counts them again, so the figures move as pools settle.
| Result | Typical per card | Range seen |
|---|---|---|
| home win | 6 | 1 to 9 |
| draw | 4 | 0 to 8 |
| away win | 4 | 2 to 8 |
| Result | Matches | Share |
|---|---|---|
| home win | 108 | 41% |
| draw | 71 | 27% |
| away win | 83 | 31% |
Want to bet on one match on its own?
A pool ticket and a bookmaker bet are different products. If what you want is a bet on one of these matches on its own, at a price you can see before you stake, that is a licensed South African bookmaker rather than a pool.

What the payout record says about picking
Nobody won the top level, 14/14, in 14 of the 19 settled pools on file. When it was won, the middle payout was R8,208.50. When the top level pays a very large amount, it is nearly always because very few tickets got there. A big number means the card was hard. It does not mean the game pays well. Every settled pool has its own page under MatchPlay 14 results and payouts. Each page lines the winning combination up against the real score of every match.
The honest version of a MatchPlay 14 tip
MatchPlay 14 is a totalisator pool. Every stake goes into one pot. The pot is split between the tickets with the most results right. So what a winning ticket pays depends on how many other people picked the same way. A tip that everyone follows is worth less because everyone followed it. The prediction sites never mention that part.
The lowest paying level on this product is 11/14, so aim for that rather than a perfect card. Most tickets in every pool win nothing. This is a game of chance. Treat it as money you spend on entertainment, not as a way to earn. If it stops being that, the National Responsible Gambling Programme counselling line is free and confidential on 0800 006 008.

Questions
What is the best strategy for MatchPlay 14?
No strategy makes a totalisator pool profitable. Any site that tells you otherwise is selling something. Here is what the data does show, across 266 scored matches on 19 settled MatchPlay 14 cards. The home win came up 41% of the time. The draw came up 27% of the time. The away win came up 31% of the time. This operator picks the fixtures, and it picks more home sides than an even split would give. That tells you where most of a card usually lands. It does not tell you which matches are the exceptions, and the exceptions decide who wins.
How many correct results does a MatchPlay 14 ticket need?
Settled MatchPlay 14 pools pay at 11/14, 12/14, 13/14 and 14/14 correct, so a ticket does not have to be perfect to win. Nobody won the top level, 14/14, in 14 of the 19 settled pools on file. When it was won, the middle payout was R8,208.50. Every settled pool and what it paid is on the results and payouts page, one page per pool. You do not have to take any of it on trust.
Does this site sell MatchPlay 14 predictions?
No, and it never will. Nobody knows the results of next week's card. The payout also depends on how many other people picked the same way. Most tickets in every pool win nothing. This site publishes the operator's own card, the real results of every settled pool, and what each level paid. A prediction is a guess, and a guess is worth what you pay for it.
Which MatchPlay 14 pool is open now?
Pool 1020 closes Saturday 19 September 2026 at 14:29 South African time. The card has 14 matches. The full card and every kick-off time is on the fixtures page, rebuilt from the operator's feed rather than typed by hand.
Where these figures come from
Every percentage on this page is counted from the winning combinations and match scores that www.nationallottery.co.za published for settled MatchPlay 14 pools. This site keeps them all instead of overwriting them each week. Run by the South African National Lottery, the same operator as SportStake 13, which it renamed MatchPlay 13 on 1 June 2026. Nothing here is modelled, weighted or predicted. See how we check the data for the way every figure here is collected and checked.
SoccerBetting SA is not the pool operator, takes no bets and holds no money.
