Durban City vs Orbit College – click here to bet
Durban City are currently 6th on the table with 35 points from 25 matches. They have registered ten wins, five draws and ten defeats while scoring 22 goals and conceding 22, reflecting a side that is balanced but often lacks cutting edge in the second half.
Their recent form has dipped. They were beaten 5-2 away to Magesi in their latest outing after suffering a 1-0 loss to Golden Arrows and another narrow 1-0 defeat at home to Mamelodi Sundowns before that.
Orbit College sit 16th at the foot of the standings with 19 points from 25 games. They have managed just five wins, four draws and suffered sixteen defeats. Across the campaign they have found the net only 18 times while letting 41 slip at the opposite end.
They come into this match after an inconsistent run of results of which they have lost four of their last five clashes. Orbit College were defeated 2-1 at home by Golden Arrows in their most recent test after a goalless draw with Marumo Gallants the week prior which followed a 3-1 defeat to Kaizer Chiefs
Head-to-Head:
Durban City have had the upper hand in this fixture. They are unbeaten in the last five meetings, winning two and drawing three, including a convincing 3-0 away victory earlier this season. Notably both of the meetings between the teams in the 2024/25 Motsepe Championship resulted in stalemates.
Odds: Durban City 1.87 | Draw 3.25 | Orbit College 5.25
Verdict:
Despite their recent struggles Durban City remain the more organised and defensively sound side. Orbit College continue to concede regularly and have battled against nearly all of the opposition they have faced. I am expecting the hosts to take advantage and return to winning ways.
Bet: Durban City to Win at 1.87

Golden Arrows vs Siwelele – click here to bet
Golden Arrows are positioned 8th on the log with 34 points from 25 matches played. They have earned ten wins and four draws while settling for eleven defeats. Overall, they have scored 31 goals and let 32 past the keeper and they are a side capable of scoring but not always reliable defensively.
Their recent form has been fairly solid. Arrows secured a 2-1 win over Orbit College in their latest match after edging Durban City 1-0 but prior to that they had suffered a heavy 5-0 defeat to Orlando Pirates.
Siwelele occupy 11th position on the leaderboard with 28 points from 24 appearances. They have registered six wins, ten draws and eight defeats, scoring just 13 goals and conceding 17 which points to a defensively disciplined team but one that lacks attacking flair.
They come into this clash on a run of draws. Siwelele played out a 0-0 stalemate with Marumo Gallants last time they took to the pitch after a 1-1 draw against AmaZulu and a narrow 1-0 defeat to Chippa United a few days before.
Head-to-Head:
Siwelele have won the only recent meeting between the sides, securing a 3-1 victory earlier this season.
Odds: Golden Arrows 2.75 | Draw 3.00 | Siwelele 2.90
Verdict:
This looks like a closely contested encounter. Golden Arrows have shown more attacking intent in recent matches, while Siwelele remain difficult to break down but struggle to score. I am expecting a tight game where neither side does enough to dominate.
Bet: Draw at 3.00
