Where this page gets its data
The combination, the scores, the winning ticket counts and the payouts are republished from the public feed used by www.nationallottery.co.za , the official SportStake 8 site. SportStake 8 is now called MatchPlay 8. Sizekhaya Holdings took over the South African National Lottery from Ithuba on 1 June 2026 and renamed the soccer pools. It is the operator’s short pool: eight matches, but two forecasts on each, the first half and the second half, so a winning combination carries sixteen symbols. Nothing on this page is typed by hand. Nothing is estimated unless the row says so.
A settled pool never changes, so this page is a permanent record and does not go out of date. 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.
