Golden Arrows vs Richards Bay Predictions

This match pits two struggling teams against each other. Arrows should improve under their new coach whilst Richards Bay are terrible on the road. I see Arrows scoring a couple of goals in a three-point haul.

Head to Head

Golden Arrows hold a 2-1 advantage over Richards Bay across three previous clashes.

Arrows won 2-1 away from home when the sides last met in August 2023.

Golden Arrows Form & Team News

After a terrible run of 11 successive losses in all competitions, Arrows brought coach Steve Komphela to the club. He immediately oversaw a victory to stop the rot.

Arrows ended 2023 with seven straight losses and began 2024 with a 3-1 loss at TS Galaxy. A 2-1 home defeat to the same opponents followed in the Nedbank Cup.

Two 1-0 setbacks came next, at home to Sekhukhune and away to Kaizer Chiefs. Last time out, they won 1-0 at Polokwane City under their new coach thanks to a late goal.

Coach Steve Komphela has two injury doubts in defence. Thabani Zuke and Themba Mantshiyane are unlikely to feature.

Velemseni Ndwandwe is an injury concern in central midfield. Nduduzo Sibiya should start after his winner from the bench in the last fixture.

Golden Arrows Predicted Lineup

Mlungwana; Lukhele, Shitolo, Mwengani, Cross; Zwane, Dlamini, Ndwandwe; Mutizwa, Libamba, Sibiya.

Richards Bay Form & Team News

With 12 losses in 20 league matches, Richards Bay sit 15th in the DSTV Premiership table. Their last eight PSL matches have seen just one win.

A 3-2 home win over Polokwane City in the Nedbank Cup proved a false dawn. They’ve since lost 2-1 at home to Royal AM and 3-0 at Chippa United in a poor display.

After a hard-fought 0-0 home draw vs TS Galaxy, they exited the Nedbank Cup. A 3-1 home loss to SuperSport United in their last match saw them knocked out.

Coach Vusimuzi Vilakazi has quite a settled XI. Boikanyo Komane could replace newly-signed Tercious Malepe, who lacks match fitness.

Centre back Sibusiso Mthethwa could replace Austin Dube in defence.

Richards Bay Predicted Lineup

Magoola; Mabuya, Mcineka, Mthethwa, Mabua; Dlamini, Komane; Figuareido, Barns, Ntsundwana; Mbuthuma.

Verdict

Golden Arrows v Richards Bay

I see Arrows piling misery on Richards Bay in this Derby match. I can see Golden Arrows over 1.5 goals as a team.
