Head to Head


Chippa United have won five of their seven matches against Richards Bay. There have been two draws.

Chippa United Form & Team News


The Chilli Boys are without a win in eight matches. Six of those fixtures have ended in defeats.

After four straight wins, they lost four successive matches. Successive draws followed: 1-1 draw at Golden Arrows and 0-0 away at Royal AM. 

Chippa were beaten 1-0 at home by Sekhukhune United on the final day of last season. This term began with a 2-1 loss at Orlando Pirates in midweek after leaking in the 91st minute.

Chippa United are unlikely to have Andile Jali available after a hamstring injury. Xolani Sithole or Siphelo Baloni could take his place in central midfield. 

Young winger Aphelele Teto is pushing for a start. Left back Gadiel Kamagi is awaiting his work permit.

Richards Bay Form & Team News


Richards Bay have won five of their last nine PSL matches going back to last season. If we include the PSL playoffs, it’s eight wins in 13 fixtures with just two losses.

A 1-0 win at Orlando Pirates was followed by a 3-1 loss at Cape Town City and a 2-1 win over Stellenbosch on the final day. Two wins and two draws were enough to stay up after the playoffs.

Richards Bay began this season with a 1-0 home victory over TS Galaxy. 

Coach Brandon Truter is without Sanele Barns after he was sold in the off-season. New midfielder Siyethemba Sithebe is doubtful with an injury. 

Siboniso Conco is set to play down the right wing. Former Sundowns attacker Thabiso Kutumela will hope to be in the starting XI after getting no minutes last week.

Verdict

I'm backing BTTS No in this match and I see Richards Bay taking the three points.
