Golden Arrows vs AmaZulu Predictions


Arrows are backed to win this derby. AmaZulu are poor travellers and I see a low-scoring home victory.

  • AmaZulu have lost 5 of their last 6 away matches.

Head to Head


AmaZulu hold a 15-14 advantage over Golden Arrows across 34 clashes with five draws.

The clubs played out a 0-0 draw when they last met in January.

Golden Arrows Form & Team News


Golden Arrows have taken nine points from six matches under new coach Manqoba Mngqithi. They’re four points off seventh place with two games in hand. 

They fought hard for a 1-1 home draw vs Mamelodi Sundowns before winning 1-0 at Polokwane City. A 1-0 loss at Magesi with no shots on target saw followed by a 2-1 home win vs Kaizer Chiefs. 

After a stale 0-0 home draw vs Chippa United, they were fortunate to draw 1-1 at Marumo Gallants in their last match. Arrows were outshot 23-4 and allowed 3.30 xG.

There are four injury concerns ahead of this match. Striker Lungelo Nguse is absent and captain Thabani Zuke is doubtful at the back.

Goalkeeper Ismail Watenga has missed the last three matches. Themba Mantshiyane requires a late fitness test at centre back.

Golden Arrows Predicted Lineup


Maova; Phillips, Shitolo, Mantshiyane, S. Cele; Ndwandwe, Zwane, Gumbi; Sibiya, Mutizwa, Van Rooi.

AmaZulu Form & Team News


Usuthu have lost five of their last six away matches in all competitions. They sit ninth in the PSL table despite losing 13 of their 25 matches.

A 2-0 defeat at Mamelodi Sundowns was followed by a 2-1 home loss to TS Galaxy. A 2-1 defeat at Chippa United, with 16 shots made it three straight losses. 

AmaZulu bounced back to beat Richards Bay 1-0 at home. Their last match saw a 1-0 loss at Stellenbosch as they allowed 2.79 Expected Goals. 

Coach Arthur Zwane could hand another start to 17-year-old winger Bayanda Thabede. Abbubakar Mobara is a doubt in defence. 

AmaZulu may stick with veteran defenders Thembela Sikhakhane and Rama Mphahlele. 

AmaZulu Predicted Lineup


Ofori; Sikhakhane, Mphahlele, Fielies, Hanamub; Zungu, Motshwari; Thabede, Brooks, Moremi; Ighodaro.

Verdict

I see Arrows winning this match at home due to AmaZulu's away struggles.
