There are 2 DSTV Premiership matches taking place on Wednesday and we take a look at each of them from a betting angle.
GOLDEN ARROWS v AMAZULU
Golden Arrows opened their season with a 2-1 home win over Maritzburg United, but subsequent to that they went down 3-1 at SuperSport and drew 2-2 at TS Galaxy. They have comfortably the highest average goals in the League at the moment with 3.7 per game and all 3 matches have delivered profits for over 2.5 goal backers.
AmaZulu are battling to replicate last season’s heroics when they finished runners-up to Sundowns and they have only taken 2 points from their first 3 matches and sit 14th on the table. They opened with a 1-0 defeat to Sundowns, but have now played successive goalless draws at home to Swallows and SuperSport, meaning AmaZulu have still to score their first goal of the season.
Last season AmaZulu won this fixture 1-0 and Golden Arrows won at AmaZulu 2-0.

Golden Arrows 29/20
Draw 7/4
AmaZulu 12/5
Suggested Bet: Golden Arrows win at 29/20
Arrows return home where they got their only 3 pointer this season and they certainly look full of goals and I fancy them to beat an AmaZulu side that is still to see an opposition goalkeeper pick the ball out of the back of the net.
MARITZBURG UNITED v MARUMO GALLANTS
Both of these sides are struggling with Maritzburg going into this game 13th on the log on 3 points from their 3 matches. That came last time out a 1-0 win over Baroka and prior to that they lost 2-0 at home to Sekhukhune and 2-1 on the road to Golden Arrows.
Marumo Gallants have only played 2 matches as their fixture against Cape Town City was postponed. This will be their first game since the 24th August, almost a month ago and that was a goalless draw at home to Pirates. They lost their opening match of the season 2-0 away at Baroka.

Maritzburg United 5/4
Draw 39/20
Marumo Gallants 51/20
Suggested Bet: Maritzburg win at 5/4
It is hard to be confident in either of these sides, but I fancy Maritzburg to get their first home win of the season.
