There is just 1 DSTV Premiership match taking place on Friday night and we take a look at the game between Swallows and Richards Bay from a betting angle.
Let’s start with a look at the Outright Betting where Mamelodi Sundowns are predictably short priced favourites at 1/9 with SuperSport United and Orlando Pirates both 14/1, Kaizer Chiefs are 16/1 and you can get 25/1 and better the balance.
It is surely a matter of time before bookmakers price up a “Without Mamelodi Sundowns” market.

SWALLOWS
Swallows are 6th on the log and have recovered from a slow start which saw them take just 1 point from their opening two games. They subsequently bounced back with a 2-1 away win over Sekhukhune and a 3-1 home win over newcomers, Cape Town Spurs. They were 3/1 underdogs for the Sekhukhune win and justified 17/20 favourite status when beating Spurs.
RICHARDS BAY
Richards Bay have continued where they left off last season and that is battling to get points. They have played 5 matches and currently sit 2nd from bottom of the log with 2 draws and 3 losses. One of those draws came last time out at home to Sekhukhune where the match finished 1-1 and before that they did give Mamelodi Sundowns a decent game going down 1-0 at home, a game where they were priced as 9/1 for the victory.
On the road this season Richards Bay have played out a goalless draw at AmaZulu and lost 2-0 to SuperSport United in the opening weekend of the season.
HEAD-TO-HEAD
Swallows won this fixture 1-0 last season and Richards Bay had won the reverse fixture by the same margin.

Swallows 23/20
Draw 21/10
Richards Bay 28/10
I am going to keep this one quite simple as I have been impressed with Swallows in recent outings and I am quite happy to take the 23/20 that they pick up 3 points against a struggling Richards Bay team.
