Golden Arrows vs AmaZulu Predictions - Arrows to shoot down Usuthu in PSL win

Last updated: 14 minutes ago

Golden Arrows and AmaZulu face off in what promises to be an exciting match. Historically, AmaZulu lead with a 16-14 advantage in head-to-head encounters. However, Arrows have shown impressive home form with eight wins in their last 11 matches, and AmaZulu struggle on the road with less than a point per away game. Predicted lineups suggest a strong home performance from Arrows. Despite previous challenges against AmaZulu, current stats suggest Arrows could secure a home victory, likely scoring 2+ goals.

Key Stats – Arrows Great Home Form, AmaZulu Poor on the Road


  • Golden Arrows have won 8 of their last 11 home matches.
  • Golden Arrows have scored 15 goals in their last 6 home matches.
  • AmaZulu have lost 9 of their last 14 away matches.
  • AmaZulu have conceded 2+ goals in 3 of their last 4 away matches.

Arrows Rarely Beat Usuthu at Home


AmaZulu hold a 16-14 advantage over Golden Arrows across 35 clashes with five draws.

AmaZulu won 1-0 at Arrows when the clubs last met in April 2025. Arrows have won just once in their last seven home matches against AmaZulu.

Golden Arrows Excelling at Home – Eight Wins in 11 on Home Turf


Arrows have won eight of their last 11 home matches. On the road, it’s no wins in 11 matches with six defeats. 

A 4-3 defeat at Stellenbosch was followed by a 2-1 home win vs TS Galaxy in the Carling Knockout Cup. They smashed Marumo Gallants 4-0 in the PSL before losing 3-1 away at Orlando Pirates.

A 2-2 home draw vs Marumo Gallants in the Carling Knockout Cup preceded a loss on penalties. Their away woes continued with a 2-1 loss at TS Galaxy last time out. 

Usuthu Struggle on the Road – Under a Point Per Away Game


AmaZulu have taken just six points from six away league fixtures. They’re totally reliant on their home league form with five victories in the last six on their travels. 

Usuthu scored a late set-piece to beat Durban City 1-0 at home. A 3-0 win at Chippa United was surprisingly followed by a 1-0 home loss to Polokwane City to end a five-match home winning streak.

They quickly responded with a 2-0 home victory vs Siwelele despite being outshot 14-7. On Friday night, they were outplayed throughout in a 2-0 away setback at Richards Bay.

Predicted Lineups & Team News


Golden Arrows (4-2-3-1): Ngcobo; Phillips, Jiyane, Mantshiyane, Cele; Cisse, Dlamini; Ndlovu, Maxwele, Khumalo; Dion.

Coach Manqoba Mngqithi is set to recall Keanan Phillips at right back. Midfielder Lungelo Dube is an injury doubt.

Themba Mantshiyane is doubtful in defence for this one. Siyanda Ndlovu is the league’s top chance creator and will be looking to create goals for Sede Dion, who leads the PSL’s Golden Boot race.

AmaZulu: (3-5-2): Johnson; Allan, Mthethwa, Hanamub; Radebe, Hlangabeza, Bern, Ekstein, Ngcobo; Maqokola, Ngwenya.

Coach Arthur Zwane has left top scorer Thando Ngwenya on the bench for recent matches. Liam Bern is set to start in midfield, having had his move delayed over a court case. 

Veteran midfielder Bongani Zungu is set to play no part. Keagan Allan will play in defence having missed out on the Bafana Bafana AFCON squad. 

Verdict

I'm backing an Arrows win with 2+ team goals scored by the hosts.
