There are 4 PSL matches taking place on Saturday and we take a look at each of them from a betting angle.
ORLANDO PIRATES v BAROKA
Pirates are 3rd on the table and undefeated in 4 matches. They are coming off back-to-back victories over SuperSport United at home and Bloem Celtic away.
Baroka are 4th on the log with 2 wins, a draw and a loss. That loss came last time out, 1-0 away at Tshakhuma.

Orlando Pirates 7/10
Draw 21/10
Baroka 11/2
Suggested Bet: Both teams to score, YES, at 29/20
This is a risky bet in the PSL, but looking at the head-to-head between the sides this bet would have arrived in the last 8 League matches and with a stat like that I simply can’t resist.
TS GALAXY v GOLDEN ARROWS
TS Galaxy are 7th on the table, level on points, but 1 position behind Golden Arrows. Both sides have had 3 draws and one victory in their opening 4 matches.
Galaxy’s 4 matches average just 0.8 goals each, the lowest in the Division while Arrows 4 matches are the highest in the PSL, averaging 3 goals each. Galaxy’s only home match was a 1-0 win over AmaZulu and Arrows 2 away games have both finished in 1-1 draws.

TS Galaxy 15/10
Draw 21/10
Golden Arrows 19/10
Suggested Bet: Arrows win at 19/10
I am a bit surprised to see Galaxy as short as 19/10 given how they are struggling to score goals. Their defence has been strong, but Arrows look like a team that can break them down and I am going for an away win here.
MAMELODI SUNDOWNS v STELLENBOSCH
Sundowns are currently 2nd on the log on 10 points, 1 point behind leaders Swallows, but with a game in hand. They have won 3 and drawn 1 of their opening 4 fixtures and last time out were too strong for AmaZulu, winning 4-3 at home.
Stellenbosch are 9th on the table, 5 points behind Sundowns and they had their first win of the season at time out, 2-0 at home to Chippa. Their 2 away games have been a 1-0 loss to SuperSport United and a 1-1 draw at Orlando Pirates.

Sundowns 9/20
Draw 61/20
Stellenbosch 27/4
Suggested Bet: Handicap, Sundowns (-1) at 14/10
Sundowns have looked in good nick and I can see them putting away the Stellenbosch side fairly comfortably. For this bet to arrive I need them to win by more than a goal.
AMAZULU v CAPE TOWN CITY
AmaZulu are 12th on the log with 1 win, a draw and 2 defeats in their opening 4 matches. They lost 4-3 away at Sundowns last time out and their home games have seen them beat Black Leopards and draw with Pirates.
Cape Town City are 5th on the table with 2 wins, a draw and a loss. They beat Bloem Celtic 4-2 at home last time out and in their only away match they beat Maritzburg United 1-0.
AmaZulu edged this fixture 2-1 last season and they won their last 4 home matches against Cape Town City in all competitions.

AmaZulu 37/20
Draw 31/20
Cape Town City 22/10
Suggested Bet: Over 2.5 goals at 31/20
This bet would have arrived in all 4 of the last head-to-heads between the sides and I am basing this play purely on the price.
