KAIZER CHIEFS vs RICHARDS BAY FC – Click here to bet
Kaizer Chiefs have struggled to maintain winning form in the PSL this season and they are in 8th place on the log after winning 2, losing 2 and drawing 1 of their 5 matches, leaving them on 7 points.
Their most recent fixture took place on the 30th of October when they clashed with Magesi away from home, despite being comfortable favourites they were unable to get the job done and the match ended in a 2-2 draw.
Richards Bay have not been won since their opening match of the season, which leaves them in 12th place on the table, just 4 spots off last place due to winning 1, losing 4 and drawing 2 of their 7 matches.
They participated in their latest fixture on the 5th of November, when they took on Orlando Pirates on the road. Richards Bay defended well, restricting Pirates to just 1 goal, however, with their only goal being scored in the first match of the season they were unable to equalise which led to a 1-0 defeat.
Head-to-Head
These sides met twice last season in the league, where the first match on Chiefs home soil ended in a 1-0 win for the home side. The second match played in front of a Richards Bay crowd resulted in a 1-0 win for Richards Bay, leaving these sides 1-1 in terms of recent head-to-head.
Verdict
I believe that this match will be dominated by Chiefs and I am happy to back them at the price.

CAPE TOWN CITY FC vs POLOKWANE CITY – Click here to bet
Cape Town City have struggled to get their league campaign firing in their first few matches, and they sit far back in 13th on the log, after winning 1, losing 2 and drawing 2 of their matches with an aggregate goal difference of 2 goals for and 7 goals against.
They went head-to-head with Mamelodi Sundowns at Loftus on the 30th of October in what was their most recent match, they were outplayed in a match that concluded in a 3-0 loss.
Polokwane City have been superb this season and they are within the top teams so far, currently in 3rd overall after picking up 4 wins, 2 losses and 1 draw to date.
They took on Sundowns in a tough fixture on the 6th of November, where they were held scoreless losing 2-0 on the road.
Head-to-Head
These sides encountered one another twice last season, where the first match held at Cape Town City’s stadium ended in a low scoring 1-0 win for the home side. The second match played on Polokwane City turf was tightly contested and high scoring, with both sides scoring 2 goals each and the match ending in a draw.
Verdict
I am leaning towards a Polokwane win at 2.90 but my bet is both teams to score at 2.15.
BET: Both Teams to Score at 2.15
