Durban City vs AmaZulu Predictions - PSL Derby to end in a cagey draw
The upcoming match between Durban City and AmaZulu is primed for a close contest, with both teams struggling to find the net recently. Durban City are winless in their last six league matches, drawing four straight, while AmaZulu have also drawn four out of their last seven. This low-scoring trend, combined with recent head-to-head results and team news, makes a 0-0 draw a strong possibility. Punters may find value in betting on a goalless stalemate or a draw in the final result.
- Durban City and AmaZulu both struggling to score; draw expected.
- Recent form: Durban City winless in 7 league games, AmaZulu 1 win in 7.
- Best value bet: 0-0 correct score or full-time draw.

Durban City Form - Winless in Seven League Matches
Durban City have drawn four straight PSL matches and are winless in seven. They won the Nedbank Cup, but they have looked distracted in their league matches.
A 5-2 loss at bottom-placed Magesi was followed by a 1-1 draw at home to Orbit College. They beat TS Galaxy 2-1 in the Nedbank Cup final before three straight league draws.
They drew 2-2 at Siwelele and 0-0 at home vs Stellenbosch. Their last match saw a 0-0 draw at Orlando Pirates despite being outshot 31-4 and having just two touches in the Pirates box all game.
Four Draws in Seven – AmaZulu Creeping to Finish Line
AmaZulu sit fourth in the PSL table have their last seven matches have seen just one win. They’ve drawn four and lost two fixtures in that streak.
A 3 -0 loss at Orlando Pirates saw 3.97 xG conceded. A superb 5-1 home win over Chippa United preceded 1-1 draw vs Golden Arrows and a 0-0 draw at Orbit College with just three shots attempted.
Their last match brought a 1-0 home loss to Kaizer Chiefs. Usuthu limited Chiefs to just 0.78 xG but lacked ruthlessness in attack.
