There are 2 PSL fixtures for punters to sink their teeth into on Sunday and we take a look at each of them from a betting angle.
AMAZULU v CHIPPA UNITED
AmaZulu are 12th on the table and they host 14th placed Chippa United just a point behind them on the log.
AmaZulu are without a win in their last 4 matches and last time out lost 2-0 at home to Golden Arrows. Overall their home record reads played 4, won 1, drawn 2 and lost 1 and AmaZulu home games have averaged 2 goals each and if you were backing over 2.5 goals in AmaZulu in home matches this season you would have lost on all 4 occasions.
Chippa United have only taken 1 point from the last 12 they have played for and they were beaten 1-0 by Orlando Pirates in midweek, only going down to a late winner. They have yet to win on the road in 4 attempts taking just 1 draw. Chippa United’s home games have also averaged 2 goals each and only 1 of the 4 matches would have seen over 2.5 goal backers collect.
One stat that jumps out from recent head-to-head matches is that in the last 6 meetings between the sides only 1 side has managed to score.

AmaZulu 13/10
Draw 47/20
Chippa 41/20
Suggested Bet: AmaZulu win at 13/10
AmaZulu disappointed me last time out, but overall I think they are a stronger team than Chippa and am backing them for 3 points at home.
BLACK LEOPARDS v SWALLOWS
This match sees 2nd from bottom, Black Leopards host 2nd from the top, Swallows and Black Leopards are struggling having only won 1 of their opening 7 matches. They are coming off successive draws at home to Tshakhuma and away at Chiefs and they have taken 4 points from a possible 9 at home this season. Leopards home games averaged 2.3 goals each and over 2.5 goals has arrived in 2 of the 3 games.
Swallows are the surprise package of the season and they sit just 2 points behind Mamelodi Sundowns going into this weekend’s fixtures. They have yet to taste defeat in 7 matches with 4 wins and 3 draws and last time out beat Maritzburg United 2-0 at home. On the road they have had 2 draws and 1 victory in their 3 starts and those 3 games have averaged 2 goals each and under 2.5 goal backers would have collected in all 3 matches.
