SATURDAY

ORLANDO PIRATES v SWALLOWS

Both of these teams are undefeated after 2 games, but Pirates have yet to get a victory, drawing 0-0 away at Marumo Gallants last time out and 2-2 to Stellenbosch in their opener.

Swallows also played a goalless draw in their last start away at AmaZulu, but they opened their campaign with a 1-0 win over Royal AM.

These sides met in the MTN8 Cup in August with Swallows winning 2-1 and in the League last season both fixtures finished 1-1.

Orlando Pirates 1/1

Draw 39/20

Swallows 69/20

Suggested Bet: Correct Score 1-1 at 9/2

Swallows had an incredibly high percentage of draws last season and given the low scoring nature of their games so far, I am not expecting much to change. I wouldn’t rule out the Goalless Draw so the 39/20 is another option, but I am sticking my neck out here and going for the Correct Score Market.

                                                                                                         

BAROKA v MARITZBURG UNITED

Baroka have 3 points from their opening 2 games having lost 2-1 away at Chiefs in their last start having opened their campaign with a 2-0 home win over Marumo Gallants. They face a Maritzburg United side still looking for their first points having gone down 2-0 at home to Sekhukhune and 2-1 on the road to Golden Arrows.

This fixture finished 2-1 to Baroka last season and the reverse at Maritzburg was drawn 1-1.

Baroka 33/20

Draw 41/20

Maritzburg United 37/20

Suggested Bet: Baroka win at 33/20

Maritzburg look to be in for a long and hard season and Baroka can claim the 3 points here something they have done in their last 2 home games against Maritzburg.

SUNDAY

MAMELODI SUNDOWNS v KAIZER CHIEFS

Without a doubt the clash of the weekend, both teams have taken 4 points from the first 6 they have played for.

Sundowns drew 0-0 away at Chippa United last time out, having opened their account with a hard fought 3 pointer, 1-0 at home to AmaZulu.

Kaizer Chiefs beat Baroka 2-1 at home in their last start, but they also have a goalless draw to their credit away at TS Galaxy in their opening game of the season.

These sides met recently in the MTN8 Cup with the game ending in a 90 minute draw and last season it was the away team that won on each occasion with Chiefs winning this fixture 2-1.

Mamelodi Sundowns 15/20

Draw 28/10

Kaizer Chiefs 7/2

Suggested Bet: The draw at 28/10

Sundowns are worthy favourites for this game, but Chiefs look an improved side and I think that getting just under 3/1 the draw is a great price.
