In the upcoming match between Marumo Gallants and Golden Arrows, the latter is predicted to secure a victory.

Meanwhile, Golden Arrows have won three of their last six matches and possess a dominant head-to-head record against Marumo Gallants, with nine wins out of thirteen encounters.

Marumo Gallants vs Golden Arrows Predictions
I’m backing Arrows to get back to winning ways. Gallants are struggling to find the net, so I see a win to zero.
Key Stats – Arrows in Better Form
- Marumo Gallants have lost 5 of their last 6 PSL matches.
- Marumo Gallants have failed to score in 7 of their last 8 matches.
- Golden Arrows have won 3 of their last 6 matches.
- Golden Arrows have won 9 of their 13 matches vs Golden Arrows (4 draws).
Head to Head – Arrows On Top
These clubs have met on 13 previous occasions as Golden Arrows hold a 9-0 advantage with four draws.
They played out a 2-2 draw when they met in the Carling Knockout Cup in November. Marumo Gallants progressed from the tie after a penalty shootout.
Relegation Danger – Gallants with One Win in 10
Marumo ended a nine-match losing streak last time out. They sit 14th in the PSL and are only outside the drop zone on goal difference.
After three straight league losses, they were beaten 1-0 at TS Galaxy in the Nedbank Cup after extra time. A 3-0 loss at Orlando Pirates and a 1-0 home loss to Durban City made it five straight league losses.
Their last match saw a surprise 3-1 win at improving Chippa United. Gallants put up 1.85 xG from just 33% possession.
Inconsistent Arrows – Three Wins, Then Winless in Three
Arrows are winless in three matches after three wins in a row before that. They sit 12th in the table, but they’re just three points off the top eight.
A 1-0 home win followed vs Stellenbosch in the Nedbank Cup was followed by a 0-0 draw at home to Chippa United. A 2-1 home loss with ten men at Mamelodi Sundowns.
Their last match saw a defeat on penalties in the Nedbank Cup. They drew 1-1 with Durban City after extra time, before losing on spot-kicks.
