Richards Bay vs AmaZulu Predictions


The hosts need a win in the relegation battle. Usuthu are poor on the road and have less to play for. I’m backing a home win with a 1-0 correct score bet.

Richards Bay Form & Team News


The Natal Rich Boyz sat 15th in the PSL table in the relegation playoff spot. They’re five points above last place and six points off safety. 

After being beaten 2-1 at Golden Arrows, they conceded very late to lose 1-0 at Mamelodi Sundowns. Two key 1-0 home wins followed, vs Moroka Swallows and Kaizer Chiefs. 

On Friday night, a late goal conceded saw Richards Bay lose 1-0 at relegation rivals Cape Town Spurs.

Langelihle Mhlongo is available in midfield after a suspension. Moses Mthembu could drop down to the bench.

Coach Vusimuzi Vilakazi may consider recalling Tshepo Mabua and Austin Dube in defence.

Richards Bay Predicted Lineup


Magoola; Mabuya, Mthethwa, Mcineka, Mabua; Komane, Makhubela, Mhlongo; Barns, Muyaba, Ntsundwana.

AmaZulu Form & Team News


AmaZulu jumped two places in the league table to 11th after their win over the weekend. They’ve won just two of their last 16 away league matches.

A key 1-0 win at Cape Town ended a six-match winless streak in the league. Two losses followed vs Orlando Pirates 4-2 at home in the Nedbank Cup and 1-0 away in the league. 

Usuthu’s last match saw a 97th-minute penalty scored to beat Chippa United 2-1 at home.

Coach Pablo Franco Martin remains without Abbubaker Mobara due to suspension. Hendrick Ekstein is set to be recalled after his winner on Saturday.

Sede Dion is set to start up front. Wayde Jooste could come into the XI at right back.

AmaZulu Predicted Lineup


Mothwa; Jooste, Mphahlele, Fielies, Hanamub; Ngema; Mulenga, Ekstein, Moremi; Dion.

Verdict

I'm backing Richards Bay to win at home. I'm tipping a 1-0 victory.
