Who are the Premiership top scorers this season?
The table ranks players by league goals, with assists alongside. It shows the top 15 names, and it is drawn straight from the data feed, so the numbers change after every round.

On 26 September 2026, AmaZulu’s T. Ngwenya led with 8 goals. Richards Bay’s N. Xulu was next on 5, and TS Galaxy’s V. Letsoalo had 4. Because the table updates on a delay, treat these numbers as a snapshot and not the final word.
How does the top scorers table work?
Each row shows the rank, the player, the club, goals and assists. Goals are league goals only. Consequently, cup goals and international goals do not count here.
When two players have the same goal tally, the feed decides their order, and we cannot confirm the tiebreak rule. Therefore, use the table as a guide and check the league for official awards.
Why do the top scorers change so quickly?
Early in the season, one hat-trick can move a striker up several places. After seven or eight rounds, most players have only a few goals, so the gaps are small. As the season heads towards round 30, the leaders usually pull away and the table settles.
Which clubs have the most goals?
Goals come from many places, not just strikers. For example, midfielders and wingers also appear in the top 15 in most seasons. To see how a club is doing overall, open the PSL table and then the club page in the Team Hub.
Where can you check the latest goals and scores?
The PSL results page lists every recent scoreline, and live scores shows goals as they happen. In addition, the PSL website is the official home of league statistics and awards.
What is the difference between goals and assists?
A goal is scored by the player who puts the ball in the net. An assist credits the last pass before the goal. In short, the goals column ranks the table, while assists show who creates chances for others.
Who else is scoring in the Premiership?
Behind the top three, the field is tight. On 26 September 2026, Milford’s M. Zikakayo, Stellenbosch’s Q. Plaatjies, Orlando Pirates’ T. Moremi and Mamelodi Sundowns’ B. Leon each had 3 goals. Sundowns’ T. Matthews had 2 goals but 3 assists, which makes him one of the league’s main creators.
Consequently, a couple of weekends can reshuffle places three to ten. Check back after each round to see the movers.
How can you use top scorer stats?
First, goals show who finishes chances. Second, assists show who makes them. Together, they tell you which players carry their team’s attack. However, remember that a striker on a struggling team may have fewer chances than one on a title contender, so a low total is not always a sign of poor form.
Which clubs do the leading scorers play for?
The leaders come from clubs across the table. AmaZulu, Richards Bay, TS Galaxy, Milford, Stellenbosch, Orlando Pirates and Mamelodi Sundowns all had a player in the top eight on our snapshot. In other words, goals are not limited to the biggest clubs. For each club’s story, browse the Team Hub.
How does the race for the golden boot usually unfold?
Early on, the table is crowded, and a hot streak can lift an unfancied striker to the top. Then, as fatigue, injuries and national team calls take effect, the numbers spread out. Therefore, a lead of two or three goals after eight rounds is useful but not safe. Similarly, a player who scores in bursts can climb back quickly.
Because the league has 30 rounds, there is plenty of time for change. Check the table after each weekend, and pair it with the PSL results to see who scored in which game.
Why are the numbers dated?
The data feed can lag behind live matches, and players score every week. Consequently, we date the snapshot in the copy above. The table itself always shows the latest cached figures, refreshed every six hours.
