Amazulu
Amazulu started their season with a 0-0 draw away to TS Galaxy and since then they have reeled off 3 straight wins to top the early season standings. Last time out they edged a thriller away to Swallows 3-2, a game they trailed 2-1 with 11 minutes remaining.
Earlier wins came in home games against Cape Town City and Supersport. Amazulu conceded first in both those matches but hit back to win by a 2-1 scoreline.
Golden Arrows
By contrast Arrows have yet to win. They started with back to back defeats, 2-0 at home to Richards Bay and 1-0 at Sekhukhune. They got their first goal, and point, in a 1-1 draw at Marumo Gallants in their third outing and last time out they played out a goalless draw at home to TS Galaxy.
Recent Head to Head
The first of last season's league meetings finished all square at 2-2 and the return saw Arrows come out on top 2-1.
The Betting
In the early betting Amazulu are trading at around 11/10 to win the game with the draw at 1.85/1 and Arrows can be backed at around 2.85/1
A game of 3 goals or more is 1.65/1 and it's 1.22/1 for both teams to score.

The Verdict
Arrows lack of goals, just 1 from 4 outings, has to be a real concern. Meanwhile Amazulu may be a touch flattered by their early season position but there is no doubt they have plenty of spirit, coming from behind to secure 9 of their 10 points and confidence among their forwards is not an issue.
I will go with form and suggest Amazulu can chalk up another win and I wouldn't be surprised if the price shortened by kick off time.
Bet: Amazulu to win at 11/10 with Betway
