Richards Bay vs Polokwane City Predictions


Polokwane are flying high and I see them beating Richards Bay. A 1-0 win looks likely with the hosts scoring so few goals are missing their top striker.

Head to Head


Richards Bay hold a 4-2 advantage over Polokwane City with one draw in eight matches.

The sides last met in May 2024 as they played out a 0-0 draw.

Richards Bay Form & Team News


Richards Bay scored just five goals in 15 league matches. A win in their 16th fixture has seen them move five points clear of the relegation zone. 

A 0-0 draw at Marumo Gallants ended a run of six losses in seven matches. Successive defeats followed, 2-1 loss at Cape Town City and 3-1 at home to Orlando Pirates in the Nedbank Cup.

After drawing 0-0 at home in a winnable match vs Magesi FC, they won their most recent match. A 2-1 home win over Marumo Gallants came from 1-0 down after 85 minutes with ten men.

Richards Bay are without top striker Yamela Mbuthuma due to suspension. Right back Lwandile Mabuya is doubtful. 

Somila Ntsundwana came on at half-time in the last match and could start here. Attacking midfielder Mduduzi Mdantsane has arrived from Kaizer Chiefs and may make his debut. 

Richards Bay Predicted Lineup


Magoola; Dlamini, Allan, Mcineka, Ndaba; Mthembu, Mthethwa, Mdantsane; Figuareido, Ntsundwana, Bomelo.

Polokwane City Form & Team News


Polokwane are nine matches without defeat in all competitions. They’ve won eight of their 16 league matches and sit third in the PSL table. 

After successive draws, they got back to winning ways at home by beating SuperSport United 1-0. A 1-0 win over lower league The Bees followed in the Nedbank Cup. 

Following a 1-0 home victory over struggling Chippa United, they drew 0-0 at TS Galaxy last weekend. 

Polokwane City are without top right back Thabang Matuludi. Tlou Nkwe is injured at left back.

Striker Douglas Mapfumo and Hlayisi Chauke are injury doubts.

Polokwane City Predicted Lineup


Bwire; Makhubela, Nikani, Nkaki, Ndlovu; Kambala, Maphangule; Ramabu, Marema, Appollis; Daniels.

I see Polokwane winning this match. My tip is a 1-0 correct score bet.
