Richards Bay vs AmaZulu Predictions


Both of these clubs have been struggling for a long time. The match is difficult to predict but I’m backing BTTS No, a draw and a 0-0 correct score tip.

Head to Head


Richards Bay hold a 2-0 advantage over AmaZulu with two draws in four clashes.

Richards Bay Form & Team News


The Rich Boyz have lost five of their PSL matches this season so far. Their last 10 matches have seen them fail to score on eight occasions. 

A 2-0 loss at Sekhukhune United in the PSL preceded a home draw 0-0 at home with Cape Town City in the Carling Knockout Cup before winning on penalties. They lost 1-0 at Orlando Pirates after that.

Richards Bay then lost 1-0 at home in the Carling Knockout Cup to Magesi FC. In midweek, they struggles continued with a 2-1 loss at Kaizer Chiefs despite facing ten men for 42 minutes.

Central midfielder Tlakusani Mthethwa is suspended after a red card against Magesi.  

Coach Brandon Truter may ditch his back five in order to try to get a win to save his job. Speedy winger Justice Figuareido is pushing for a recall. 

Richards Bay Predicted Lineup


Otieno; Mabuya, Allan, Mcineka. Mabau; Mhlongo, Mthembu; Figuareido, Sithebe, Ntsundwana; Mbuthuma.

AmaZulu Form & Team News


After losing six matches in a row, AmaZulu got three points last time out. That was just their third victory in the last 19 league matches. 

A 3-1 home loss to Kaizer Chiefs was followed by a 1-0 defeat away at Marumo Gallants. A 2-1 home loss to Stellenbosch in the Carling Cup preceded a 2-1 defeat at Orlando Pirates.

They last played a full month ago. AmaZulu beat Chippa United 2-0 at home for a first victory under new coach Arthur Zwane. 

AmaZulu are without Abbubakar Mobara in defence due to suspension. Rama Mphahlele could take his place at the back.

Sede Dion is competing with Etiosa Ighodaro to start up front. Ethan Brooks could be benched once again in midfield. 

AmaZulu Predicted Lineup


Ofori; Sikhakhane, Mphahlele, Fielies, Hanamub; Ngema, Motshwari; Moremi, Ekstein, Mbanjwa; Ighodaro.

Verdict

I'm tipping this to be a tight, low-scoring draw.
