Golden Arrows vs Royal AM Predictions


Arrows need a response to their thrashing last time out. They host a Royal AM side who are terrible on the road. I’m tipping a home win in this one.

Head to Head


Royal AM are unbeaten in six previous clashes vs Golden Arrows with four wins.

The sides last met in the league in November as Royal AM won 1-0 at home.

Golden Arrows Form & Team News


Arrows sit ninth in the PSL table with seven matches left to play. They’ve improved somewhat of late after an 11-match losing streak. 

A 1-0 loss at Kaizer Chiefs saw Steve Komphela take over as coach. They immediately oversaw a 1-0 win at Polokwane City and a 2-1 home win vs Richards Bay to end a run of 11 straight losses.

Arrows then came from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 at home to SuperSport United. Last time out, they lost 7-1 at Orlando Pirates as they allowed 12 ‘big chances’ in a poor display.

Defender Themba Mantshiyane is out injured. Central midfielder Velemseni Ndwandwe is also set to miss out. 

Lungelo Nguse has scored from the bench in the last two matches. He could start this one up front.

Golden Arrows Predicted Lineup


Mlungwana; Mhlongo, Shitolo, Zuke, Cele; Zwane, Dlamini; Mutizwa, Sibiya, Mthanti; Nguse.

Royal AM Form & Team News


Royal AM have lost five of their last six away league matches. Thanks to four home wins in six, they’ve jumped to 28 points and are nearly safe from relegation.

A 2-1 win at Richards Bay preceded a 1-0 loss at Sekhukhune United. A fine 2-0 home win over Cape Town City was followed by two poor 3-0 away losses, vs Stellenbosch FC and TS Galaxy. 

Royal AM trailed 2-1 after 86 minutes in their last match. Two late goals sealed a 3-2 home victory over Polokwane City.

Centre back Samuel Manganyi is injured. Left winger Sabelo Sithole remains doubtful. 

Attacking midfielder Menzi Masuku is an injury concern. Mondli Mpoto could start in goal ahead of experienced Hugo Nyame.

Royal AM Predicted Lineup


Mpoto; Mkhize, Jiyane, Mabuza, Matlaba; Maxwele, Msomi, Mahlasela, Magaqa, Mashiane; George.

Verdict

I'm backing Arrows to win this match. I don't see both sides scoring in the clash.
