There is a stand-alone fixture in the PSL on Tuesday the 5th of November featuring high flying Orlando Pirates at home to Richards Bay and we look at the match from a betting angle.
Let’s start with a look at the PSL Outright Betting where Mamelodi Sundowns have drifted from 1.05 to 1.20 followed by Orlando Pirates at 5.50, Kaizer Chiefs are 26.00 with Stellenbosch having dropped to 34.00. The rest of the field are 67.00 and higher.

Orlando Pirates have been in excellent form this season in the PSL and they currently top the log after winning all 6 of their matches, with an aggregate of 12 goals for and just 2 goals against them.
Their most recent match was played on the 29th of October when they clashed with TS Galaxy away from home and picked up a 2-0 victory.
Pirates have been particularly impressive at home scoring at least 2 goals in all 4 of their matches.
Richards Bay have had a tough time putting goals on the board this season and they sit back in 12th on the table after winning 1, drawing 2 and losing 3 of their 6 matches so far. They have only managed to score 1 goal this season which was back in Round 1 against TS Galaxy and although they have been good defensively, they have conceded 4 goals.
Their last match was held on Sekhukhune home soil on the 29th of October where Richards Bay could not get into the game and lost 2-0.
Head-to-Head
These sides have already played one another this season with Pirates winning 1-0 on the road.
Last season Richards Bay won this fixture 1-0 and there have only been 2 goals scored in the last 3 meetings between the sides.

VERDICT
Richards Bay will put up a fight but their inability to score goals will count against them and I cannot see them keeping a rampant Pirates team from finding the net. I am backing Pirates to win this game by more than a goal.
BET: Handicap, Pirates -1.5 goals at 2.20
