Richards Bay vs Golden Arrows Predictions

Richards Bay are unbeaten in seven games at home, conceding just twice in that span. Considering Arrows’ poor form, I am backing the hosts to win to nil. A 1-0 scoreline has value.

Richards Bay Form

Richards Bay find themselves 11th on the PSL table with eight wins, five draws and 13 defeats this season. They have 29 points, just one point off eighth place.

With a top eight finish within sight, the hosts will hope to get a home win in the penultimate game of the season. Results for the KZN side has been quite inconsistent of late, but they do have a few good wins to hold onto.

After a 2-0 success against Kaizer Chiefs in mid-March, Richards Bay lost at Polokwane City. That was followed by a 1-0 loss away to AmaZulu, but they bounced back to beat Cape Town City 1-0 at home. At the end of April, they lost 3-0 at Sundowns but last week, despite going a man down, beat TS Galaxy 1-0 away from home.

Golden Arrows Form

Golden Arrows will be desperate for points as they hover just above the relegation zone. Cape Town City currently occupies 15th place with Golden Arrows three points ahead in 14th.

Arrows haven’t managed a win since 29 March where they beat Kaizer Chiefs 2-1 at home. They drew with Chippa United and Marumo Gallants before losing at home to AmaZulu, Stellenbosch and Orlando Pirates.

In midweek, Golden Arrows played Pirates again, losing 3-0 away from home.

Verdict

Richards Bay v Golden Arrows

I am backing Richards Bay to win to nil. A 1-0 scoreline is precited.
