Siwelele vs Orlando Pirates – click here to bet
Siwelele head into this fixture sitting 14th on the log with just 4 points from seven matches. Their record of one win, one draw and five defeats highlights the struggles they’ve faced early in the campaign.
Saturday’s 2–0 loss away to Magesi extended a run of inconsistency and left them with a goal difference of –6, having scored only three times all season. With consecutive defeats behind them and pressure growing, Siwelele will need to pick up points at home to avoid slipping deeper into the relegation fight.
Orlando Pirates, meanwhile, occupy 8th spot with 9 points from five games, winning three and losing two so far. Their scheduled clash against AmaZulu was postponed over the weekend as they were involved in the CAF Champions League and their last league action came on the 31st of August where they dominated Chippa to win 3-0 on the road.
With three successive league wins, the Buccaneers are starting to find rhythm despite some disruptions, and on current form they look significantly stronger at both ends of the pitch compared to their opponents.
Head-to-Head
These sides have never officially met in the past.
Odds: Siwelele 5.50 | Draw 3.30 | Orlando Pirates 1.72
Verdict
Siwelele’s lack of cutting edge in front of goal and defensive gaps leave them vulnerable here, while Pirates arrive confident after a 3-0 away win the the CAF Champions League on the weekend. With the Buccaneers holding more attacking quality, they are well placed to take maximum points on the road and I am backing them to do so without conceding a goal.
Bet: Result and Both Teams to Score – Orlando Pirates and No at 2.30.
