AmaZulu vs Orlando Pirates Predictions

The hosts are playing well right now but their record versus Pirates is awful. The Sea Robbers are tipped to win this match in Durban and to score 2 or more goals.

Orlando Pirates Predicted Lineup

AmaZulu have lost 4 of their last 5 matches vs Orlando Pirates.
AmaZulu have seen BTTS No in 4 of their last 5 home matches.
Orlando Pirates have won 5 of their last 7 away PSL matches.
Orlando Pirates have scored 2+ goals in 5 of their last 7 away matches (PSL).

Head to Head

Orlando Pirates hold a 15-3 advantage across 33 previous meetings with 15 draws.

Pirates are unbeaten in 15 matches vs Usuthu since the latter returned to the PSL in 2017. The last meeting saw AmaZulu lose 4-0 at home in May.

AmaZulu Form & Team News

Usuthu have turned a corner after a slow start to the season. Their last five matches have seen three wins and they’ve kept six clean sheets in nine fixtures this season.

A 1-0 home win against TS Galaxy preceded a 3-2 home win over Cape Town City thanks to two injury-time goals. After a dour 0-0 draw at Polokwane City, AmaZulu lost 2-1 at Moroka Swallows with ten men.

On Saturday, they won 1-0 at Kaizer Chiefs in the Carling Knockout Cup. An 88th minute goal sealed the victory and progress to the quarter-finals.

Centre back Abbubaker Mobara remains suspended for this match. Striker Sede Dion is expected to be recalled up front.

Tercious Malepe is ruled out injured in midfield. Target man Bongi Ntuli is doubtful.

AmaZulu Predicted Lineup

Mothwa: Sikhakhane, Gumede, Mphahlele, Fielies, Hanamub; Brooks, Motshwari, Ngema; Moremi, Dion.

Orlando Pirates Form & Team News

Pirates have had a slight dip of late with three losses in their last six matches. They’ve lifted a trophy, progressed in another cup and exited the CAF Champions League in that streak.

A 1-0 home loss to Mamelodi Sundowns preceded a 1-0 home defeat to Stellenbosch in MTN8 semi-final second leg (progressed on away goals). Bucs then beat Jwaneng Galaxy 1-0 at home but lost on penalties in the CAF Champions League.

After a 0-0 draw against Sundowns in the MTN8 final, they won on penalties to lift a third trophy in 12 months. On Friday, a 2-0 home win over Cape Town Spurs saw them progress to the next round of the Carling Knockout Cup.

Coach Jose Riveiro has injury doubts over forwards Monnapule Saleng and Zakhele Lepasa. Experienced attackers Kermit Erasmus and Thembinkosi Lorch could start once again.

Centre back Nkosinathi Sibisi needs a late fitness test. Olisa Ndah may deputise once again.

Orlando Pirates Predicted Lineup

Buthelezi; Monyane, Xoki, Ndah, Hotto; Timm, Monare; Lorch, Erasmus, Maswanganyi; Makgopa.

Verdict

AmaZulu v Orlando Pirates

I see Pirates having too much for AmaZulu in this match. I'm also backing Over 1.5 goals teams for Orlando Pirates.
