There are three Premiership fixtures taking place on Wednesday and we take a look at each of them from a betting angle.
AMAZULU vs SEKHUKHUNE – Click here to bet
AmaZulu are currently 12th on the log and they have won 2, lost 2 and drawn 1 of their last 5 matches. Last time out they played out a goalless draw at home to Golden Arrows.
Sekhukhune are sitting 4th on the log and are undefeated in their last 3 games. They drew 1-1 at Polokwane in their last start, but they have yet to win on the road in 3 attempts this season.
Head-to-Head
Amazulu have won their last 4 matches against Sekhukhune in all competitions and last season they won home and away by 2 goals to nil.
Betting
AmaZulu are 29/20 to grab all 3 points with the draw 37/20 and Sekhukhune United are 9/4.
Verdict
Given AmaZulu’s recent improvement and Sekhukhune United’s battle on the road I like the home team to grab all 3 points.
BET: AmaZulu win at 29/20
CAPE TOWN CITY vs ORLANDO PIRATES – Click here to bet
Cape Town City are currently 11th on the log with 3 wins and 2 losses in their last 5 starts, 1 of those wins came last time out, 1-0 at home to Kaizer Chiefs and 8 of the 11 Cape Town City matches have delivered 2 goals or less in total.
Orlando Pirates are currently 2nd on the log, 3 points behind Mamelodi Sundowns, but with a game in hand. They have won 4 and lost 1 of their last 5 matches and last time out beat Magesi 1-0 on the road. Prior to that they had hammered Marumo Gallants 8-1 at home. Pirates have only conceded 4 goals in 10 matches this season.
Head-to-Head
Orlando Pirates are unbeaten against Cape Town City in their last 5 starts in all competitions and in the League last season they won home and away 2-0 on each occasion.
Betting
Cape Town City are underdogs here at 7/2 with the draw at 21/10 and Pirates are 10/11 for the victory.
Verdict
I would be surprised if goals flowed in this game and over 2.5 goals is trading at 13/8 and I am going to predict that Pirates are going to win this one, 1-0. It is trading at 15/4 in the Correct Score Market, however I am not going to get greedy though and I am going to take a straight win bet.
BET: Pirates win at 10/11

KAIZER CHIEFS vs STELLENBOSCH – Click here to bet
Chiefs are currently 7th on the log, but with only 1 win in their last 5 starts. They were away to Cape Town City in their last start where they went down 1-0. Their last home game was a 1-0 win over Chippa United.
Stellenbosch are 5th on the log with 2 wins, 2 draws and a loss in their last 5 starts. They drew 1-1 at SuperSport United in their last start at the end of 2024 and they have yet to lose in 5 starts on the road this season.
Head-to-Head
The away team won in both matches in last season’s PSL. Stellenbosch winning this fixture 1-0.
Betting
Kaizer Chiefs are even money favourites here with the draw 21/10 and Stellenbosch a tempting 3/1.
Verdict
Chiefs have not been convincing of late and I am going to bet that Stellenbosch get at least a point out of this one.
BET: Handicap, Stellenbosch +0.5 goals at 8/10
A 7/1 TREBLE
The treble of AmaZulu and Pirates to win and Stellenbosch +0.5 goals works out at 7/1 and if you would like to take that one use the code 22798802 to populate your bet slip.
