Royal AM v Orlando Pirates – Click here to bet
Royal AM are currently 12th on the table and they bounced back from successive defeats to beat Polokwane 3-2 at home and draw 1-1 on the road with Golden Arrows. Their recent home form has been strong and they have taken 11 points from the last 15 they have played for in front of their own fans.
Orlando Pirates are 3rd on the log and followed up a 7-1 hammering of Golden Arrows with a 1-0 victory over AmaZulu last time out, a game where they started 5/10 favourites. Pirates recent away form hasn’t been great and they have only won one of their last 5 matches on the road.
Head-to-Head
Pirates beat Royal AM 4-2 at home earlier this season and they won this fixture 1-0 last season.
Royal AM are the 9/2 underdogs here with the draw at 23/10 and Pirates, a bit short for my pocket at 7/10. Both teams have found the back of the net in 4 of the last 5 head-to-heads between the sides and I am going to take the 19/20 that this happens again.
Suggested Bet: Both teams to score, Yes, at 19/20

Cape Town City v Golden Arrows – Click here to bet
Cape Town City are currently 7th on the log, but on a poor run of form that has seen them go winless in their last 8 matches. They drew 2-2 away at Polokwane last time out, a game where they started 16/10 favourites. Their last home game was a disappointing 1-0 loss to AmaZulu and they have only taken 3 points from the last 15 they have played for at home and Cape Town City home games only averaged 1.5 goals in each this season.
Golden Arrows are 9th on the table and without a win in their last 3 starts. They drew 1-1 with Royal Am last time out and prior to that were hammered 7-1 on the road by Orlando Pirates. Incredibly given the overall PSL stats they have yet to draw any of their 12 away matches, winning 6 and losing 6.
Head-to-Head
Cape Town City edged Golden Arrows 1-0 in the reverse fixture and this fixture finished goalless last season.
Cape Town City are the 8/10 favourites, but it is hard to back them with any confidence and at the same time I can’t justify backing the 7/2 on Golden Arrows. Stripping those two results out it leaves the draw at what looks an attractive price of 12/5
Suggested Bet: The draw at 12/5
