Golden Arrows vs Richards Bay Predictions


These clubs are trending in different directions right now. Arrows are improving whilst Richards Bay look odds-on for relegation. I’m backing a home win and home clean sheet.

Head to Head


Arrows hold a 3-1 lead in this fixture across four meetings.

When the sides met in March, Golden Arrows won 2-1 at home. 

Golden Arrows Form & Team News


Arrows won their opening two fixtures then went on a five-match winless streak without scoring a goal. Two successive wins have shot them up to sixth in the PSL table. 

A 5-0 thrashing at Mamelodi Sundowns in the Carling Knockout Cup preceded a 2-0 loss at Chippa United. A cagey 0-0 draw at home to SuperSport United followed. 

They have won their last two matches to jump up the table. A 3-2 win at Royal AM was followed bt a 3-2 home win and Cape Town City. 

Co-coach Mabhuti Khenyeza has resigned this week. Arrows will have Ryan Moon up front with Knox Mutiwza and Lungelo Nguse both absent. 

Captain Thabani Zuke is doubtful. He would probably not have started anyway. 

Golden Arrows Predicted Lineup


Maova; Lukhele, Phillips, Shitolo, Mantshiyane; Ndwandwe, Dube; Mthanti, Sibiya, Van Rooi; Moon.

Richards Bay Form & Team News


Richards Bay sit bottom of the PSL table having lost seven of their 10 matches. They’ve scored just three goals all season.

A 1-0 PSL loss at Orlando Pirates was followed by a 1-0 home loss to Magesi in the Carling Knockout Cup. Three more defeats have followed. 

They were beaten at Kaizer Chiefs before successive home losses. A 3-1 loss to AmaZulu was followed by a late 1-0 to SuperSport United. 

Salim Magoola and Ian Otieno are battling to start in goal. Winger Justice Figuareido should be fit after a knock.

Speedy wide forward Somila Ntsundwana is doubtful for this match. 

Richards Bay Predicted Lineup


Magoola; Mabuya, Allan, Mcineka, Ndaba; Mthembu, Mthethwa; Figuareido, Sithebe; Conco; Mbuthuma.

Verdict

I'm backing an Arrows win a home and a clean sheet for the hosts.
