Chippa United vs Orlando Pirates – click here to bet
Chippa remain rooted to the bottom with just a single point from four matches, their most recent result ended in a 1–0 defeat to Richards Bay. Pirates, meanwhile, beat Orbit College 1–0 in midweek to move into the middle of the table and will be eyeing another three points against a side short on confidence.
Head-to-Head:
Over recent years, Pirates have held the advantage over Chippa, winning their last four encounters, most recently they met twice in the Prem last season where Pirates won 2-1 at home and 1-0 on the road.
Odds: Chippa 6.00 | Draw 3.50 | Pirates 1.63
Verdict:
Pirates have dominated in this fixture for a while due to winning their last four clashes and with Chippa looking shaky this season, I think Pirates get it done with a clean sheet.
Bet: Result and Both Teams to Score – Pirates and No at 2.10.
Marumo Gallants vs Polokwane City – click here to bet
Gallants slipped to 8th after a 1–0 loss to Stellenbosch last time out, leaving them with two wins and two defeats from four games. Polokwane played out a goalless draw with Durban City in midweek and are sitting in the top 4 with five points from four matches. This derby clash should be a tight battle with little to nothing separating the teams.
Head-to-Head:
The last time these sides met in the league during the 24/25 season, Gallants hosted the game, and it was drawn 0-0, prior to that they played a few months earlier where Polokwane City claimed a narrow 1-0 home victory.
Odds: Gallants 2.55 | Draw 2.60 | Polokwane 3.50
Verdict:
Both teams have been battling for goals and I am picking this to be a low-scoring affair.
Bet: Totals – Under 1.5 Goals at 2.15.
