Head to Head


SuperSport hold a 2-1 advantage over Richards Bay with one draw in four clashes.

Richards Bay won 3-1 against ten men when the teams last met in December. 

SuperSport United Form & Team News


SuperSport United are only outside the relegation zone on goal difference. Their last ten matches have yielded just one victory. 

Three draws followed the sacking of coach Gavin Hunt. They drew 0-0 at home vs Cape Town City,1-1 at Marumo Gallants and 1-1 at Polokwane City.  

A 2-0 home over Chippa United has been followed by successive losses. They were beaten 2-1 at Stellenbosch before a 1-0 home loss to Orlando Pirates in an even contest. 

Caretaker coach Andre Arendse remains with Grant Margeman in midfield due to injury. Right winger Ghampani Lungu is a major doubt. 

Left Neo Rapoo could feature after under-20 international duty. Bradley Grobler is set for a recall up front. 

SuperSport United Predicted Lineup


Mbanjwa; Mobbie, Okon, Hlatshwayo, Rapoo; Saile, Ndlovu, Moralo, Maboe, Lakay; Grobler.

Richards Bay Form & Team News


Richards Bay have lost three of their last six matches after acquiring enough points to avoid relegation. They can finish between seventh and 14th in the PSL table. 

A 1-0 loss at AmaZulu made it three defeats in four fixtures. They responded with a 1-0 win over Cape Town City before being outclassed in a 3-0 defeat to Mamelodi Sundowns. 

A 1-0 win at TS Galaxy practically sealed survival before drawing 0-0 vs Golden Arrows last time out. They had just 37% of the ball in a strong rearguard action. 

Salim Magoola is set to keep his place in goal ahead of Ian Otieno. Right back Lwandile Mabuya is injured but Fezile Gcaba has excelled in his place.

Keegan Allan is set for a recall at the back. Yamela Mbuthuma is also expected to return to the XI up front. 

Richards Bay Predicted Lineup


Magoola; Gcaba, Allan, Mcineka, Mabua; Mthembu, Mthethwa; Gumede, Zikhali, Ntsundwana; Mbuthuma.

I see this match finishing in a draw. I'm tipping a 0-0 correct score bet.
