Siwelele vs Orlando Pirates Predictions - Bucs to batter beleaguered hosts
Orlando Pirates are strong favorites against Siwelele in their first-ever meeting, thanks to impressive recent form: three straight wins, multiple clean sheets, and solid goal-scoring. Siwelele, meanwhile, are in turmoil, having lost key staff, failed to score in six matches, and lost five of those. Pirates’ forward Tshegofatso Mabasa is in excellent form, and the team is expected to win comfortably, possibly 3-0. Siwelele will attempt to turn things around with several imminent signings, but face a tough challenge.
- First-ever match between Siwelele and Orlando Pirates.
- Pirates on a 3-match PSL win streak with 5 clean sheets in 6 games.
- Siwelele haven’t scored in 6 matches; expect a Pirates victory, likely 3-0.
