Orlando Pirates to draw with in-form Sekhukhune after the FIFA break (Getty Images).

Sekhukhune United vs Orlando Pirates Predictions


Babina Noko are in great form right now and enter this match in high spirits. Bucs have lost just twice in 15 matches but are tipped to drop two points here. I’m tipping a draw.

  • Sekhukhune United are undefeated in 6 home PSL matches.
  • Sekhukhune United have seen Under 2.5 goals in 11 of their last 13 matches.

Head to Head


Pirates hold a 5-1 advantage over Sekhukhune with one draw in seven meetings.

Pirates have won the last three meetings, including 1-0 at home in November.

Sekhukhune United Form & Team News


Sekhukhune have jumped to sixth in the PSL table after four successive league wins. They’re just two points off second spot with a game in hand. 

A 1-0 PSL win at Golden Arrows preceded a 0-0 away draw in Congo at Diables Noirs in the CAF Confederations Cup. Sekhukhune then won 1-0 at home vs Royal AM and 4-1 at Moroka Swallows in the DSTV Premiership.

Their last match saw a 2-0 home loss to AmaZulu in the Nedbank Cup. 

Coach Lehlohonolo Seema will hope top winger Elias Mokwana returns fully fit from Bafana Bafana duty. 

Right back Nyiko Mobbie also travelled to Algeria during this international break. He has a long flight on Wednesday but should be available. 

Sekhukhune United Predicted Lineup


Leaner; Mobbie, Yamba, Cardoso, Tiwani; Mkhize, Mokotjo, Mntambo; Mncube, Ohizu, Mokwana.

Orlando Pirates Form & Team News


Pirates sit second in the PSL table and have made it to the Nedbank Cup quarter-finals. 

They had a 6-0 win at minnows Crystal Lake in the Nedbank Cup and then beat Polokwane City 1-0. A 1-1 home draw vs bottom-placed Cape Town Spurs was a poor result. 

Bucs then twice came from behind to deservedly beat Kaizer Chiefs 3-2. Their last match before the international break was a 4-0 home win vs Hungry Lions in the Nedbank Cup. 

Striker Evidence Makgopa is doubtful. Tshegofatso Mabasa is set to play up front.

Right back Thabiso Lebitso returns from suspension. Thabang Monare played twice for Bafana Bafana and could be rested.

Orlando Pirates Predicted Lineup


Chaine; Lebitso, Ndah, Xoki, Hotto; Makhaula, Mbatha; Saleng, Maswanganyi, Mofokeng; Mabasa.

Verdict

I don't see Sekhukhune losing this match. I see this finishing in a draw with a 1-1 scoreline.
