Sekhukhune

 

Sekhukhune are finding it tough going this season. They have won just 1 league game, drawing 4 and losing 3 and that leaves them second bottom in the standings. Their only win so far came at home to Golden Arrows in their second outing. Other results at home delivered a creditable 1-1 draw with Sundowns, a 2-1 defeat to Royal AM and most recently another 1-1 draw with Stellies.

 

Orlando Pirates

 

Pirates were in MTN8 semi final action at the weekend when the first leg of their clash with Sundowns in Orlando finished without a goal. The Bucs return to the DSTV Premiership second in the standings 5 points behind leaders Sundowns with a game in hand. Pirates have record of 4 wins, 2 draws and 2 defeats and on their travels it has been low on thrills with 1 win, 2 draws and 1 defeat and just 2 goals scored and the same number conceded.

 

Recent Head to Head

 

Last season Pirates did the double over Sekhukhune, winning 1-0 away from home and 2-1 in Orlando.

 

 

The Betting

 

In the early betting Sekhukhune are trading at around 2.35/1 to win the game with the draw at 1.75/1 and Pirates can be backed at around 14/10

 

A game of 3 goals or more is 2/1 and it's 14/10 for both teams to score.

The Verdict

 

Sekhukhune haven't won in the last 6 although they have picked up 3 useful draws in that sequence. The home side have scored only 6 league goals and Pirates road trips have been very short of goal action.

 

That evidence suggests it could well be tight and slight preference is for the Bucs to edge it by a single goal.

 

Bet: Winning Margin, Pirates by 1 goal exactly at 29/10 with Betway
