Orlando Pirates Totally Dominant
In 38 matches, Pirates have won 20 times, losing on just three occasions. There have been 16 draws.
AmaZulu Struggling for Wins
AmaZulu finished fourth last season and won their opening PSL match this term. A cup exit on Sunday made it just three wins in the last 10 fixtures.
After a superb 5-1 home win over Chippa United, they drew successive matches and lost 1-0 at home to Kaizer Chiefs. A 1-0 win at Durban City on the final day ended a strong season for Usuthu.
This term began with a 1-0 win vs Stellenbosch in Durban thanks to a penalty. On Sunday, they lost 4-3 at home to Sekhukhune United in the MTN8 as coach Arthur Zwane lamented their worst-ever defensive display under his tutelage.
Pirates can Keep Winning
Pirates won 21 of their final 28 league matches last term to secure the league title, to go along with two domestic trophies. They’ve won both fixtures so far this season.
They won 2-0 at Stellenbosch and 3-0 at Magesi, but could only draw 0-0 at home to Durban City with the title up for grabs. They secured the trophy on the final day as they beat Orbit College 2-0.
This season started with a 2-0 home win over Milford FC. On Saturday, they outshot Durban City 41-7 across 120 minutes but only scored the winner in the dying embers of extra time for a 2-1 victory.
AmaZulu vs Orlando Pirates Predicted Lineups & News
AmaZulu (3-4-3): Mzimela; Allan, Fielies, Hanamub; Radebe, Maduna, Moralo, Mdaka; Zikhali, Ngwenya, Maqokola.
Coach Arthur Zwane remains without goalkeeper Darren Johnson after surgery. He may look to freshen up his defensive line after leaking four goals on Sunday.
Sphesihle Maduna has joined the club this week from TS Galaxy. He could be in line to start, but the match comes too soon for fellow midfielder Hendrick Ekstein.
Orlando Pirates (4-2-3-1): Chaine; Sebelebele, Seema, Zulu, Hotto; Dansin, Mbatha; Lungu, Appollis, Moremi; Radiopane.
Orlando Pirates have a fully fit squad to call upon. Sbangani Zulu is pushing for a first start in defence after replacing Nkosinathi Sibisi at half-time on Saturday.
Deon Hotto is expected to return to the starting XI at left back. Ghampani Lungu is hoping for a start, having netted an injury time winner as a substitute in the last match.
Verdict
I'm tipping Pirates to win to zero and to score Over 2.5 goals as a team.
Pirates win to nil
