Royal AM vs Golden Arrows Predictions


This match sees two of the division’s lowest scorers face off. I see these sides cancelling each other out. A 0-0 draw looks like a likely outcome.

  • Royal AM are undefeated in 7 of their last 9 PSL matches (5 draws).
  • Royal AM have scored just 6 goals in their last 16 matches (11 blanks fired).
  • Golden Arrows are winless in 7 matches vs Royal AM (3 draws).
  • Golden Arrows have failed to score in their last 5 matches.

Head to Head


These sides have met on seven previous occasions with four wins for Royal AM and three draws.

When they last met in April, the match finished in a 1-1 draw.

Royal AM Form & Team News


After a six-match unbeaten run streak (five draws), Royal AM have lost three of their last four fixtures.

Following four straight stalemates, they lost 3-0 away at Cape Town City in the Carling Knockout Cup. A 2-1 loss at Mamelodi Sundowns followed. 

They bounced back to beat Sekhukhune United 2-0 at home in the league. Before the FIFA break, they lost 1-0 at home to a very solid Polokwane City unit. 

Zakahle Ngcobo is expected to start in goal with Hugo Nyame absent. Attackers Khethu Ndlovu and Sedwyn George are injured.

The big question for coach John Maduka is in midfield. Club chairman Andile Mpisane may get yet another start.

Royal AM Predicted Lineup


Ngcobo; Shezi, Zulu, Jiyane, Matlaba; Maxwele, Mpisane, Magaqa, Mahlasela, Thikazi; Sera. 

Golden Arrows Form & Team News


Arrows are on a five-match scoring drought right now. They have lost four times and drawn once in that streak.

After successive wins to start the season, they suffered a 1-0 home loss to Magesi. A 2-0 defeat at Sekhukhune United and a 5-0 humbling by Mamelodi Sundowns in the Carling Cup followed. 

Despite having 19 shots, they lost 2-0 at Chippa United. A 0-0 draw at home to SuperSport United stopped the rot last time out. 

Coach Mabhuti Khenyeza could hand a third straight start to inexperienced winger Blessing Mchunu. Strikers Ryan Moon and Knox Mutizwa should be back from injuries. 

Captain Thabani Zuke is carrying a knock. He may be fit enough to return to the bench.

Golden Arrows Predicted Lineup


Maova; Phillips, Shitolo, Mantshiyane, Cele; Ndwandwe, Dube, Zwane; Sibiya, Nguse, Mchunu.

Verdict

I'm backing BTTS No in a draw. A 0-0 draw offers excellent value as neither side can score goals regularly.
