AmaZulu vs Orbit College Predictions

AmaZulu are favourites heading into this PSL opener against the newly promoted Orbit College. However, the Durban-based side has been scoring and conceding plenty in recent friendlies and last week’s cup game. I am backing the visitors to get a point.

AmaZulu Form & Team News

AmaZulu finished sixth 2024/25 PSL despite losing 13 of their 28 matches. They finished just four points above 14th spot.

In their last five games of the PSL season, AmaZulu could only manage one win, two draws and two defeats. They will be looking to get off to a positive start at home and hopefully make a top eight challenge this season.

Last week, AmaZulu lost their MTN8 Cup match 3-2 against Stellenbosch FC.

Coach Arthur Zwane has seen a number of experienced players depart the club.

Speedy winger Tshepang Moremi was sold to Orlando Pirates.

Orbit College Form & Team News

Orbit College makes their first-ever appearance in the PSL this season. They finished second in the NFD last season and came through a tough playoff challenge to get promoted.

Orbit College began the playoffs with successive 0-0 draws against Casric Stars and Cape Town City before managing a 1-0 win in their second game against Casric Stars.

They won their final game which secured promotion 1-0 against Cape Town City.

Orbit College have pulled off a big move to sign Orlando Pirates winger Monnapule Saleng on loan.

Verdict

AmaZulu v Orbit College

As my best bet I am tipping this match to end level with 1-1 the likely scoreline.
