Golden Arrows vs Richards Bay Prediction: Can the visiting team bounce back against a resurgent home side?

Golden Arrows will strive to secure their third consecutive victory in the league when they face off against Richards Bay at the Princess Magogo Stadium tomorrow. The hosts will be keen to take advantage of their guests, who have lost five consecutive league matches. 

Last five games: LLDWW

Mabhuti Khenyaza's men MOVED to sixth place on the log following their back-to-back victories. Golden Arrows recovered another win in the division as they scored three times and conceded twice against solid Cape Town City. The hosts are not known for some fancy football but they’ll always convert their chances. This was after their (2-3) victory over ten-man Royal AM on the road. They have now scored six and conceded four in their last two matches. 

Before their back-to-back wins, Golden Arrows played four successive matches without finding the back of the net. They have picked up thirteen points from a combined twenty-four, scoring ten and conceding nine. 

Golden Arrows will be motivated to go all out against their opponents, who are also looking to bounce back from their recent loss. 

Last five games: LLLLL

The Natal Rich Boys are treading on the same path as their previous season. Richards Bay surrendered to another league defeat as they were stunned on their home turf against Supersport United. Despite controlling the game and winning a penalty Richards Bay failed to take their chances as they lost in front of their home supporters. 

Richards Bay have been terrible this season and have conceded six times in their last three league games. 

Richards Bay, who appointed a former Sekhukhune United coach to lead them this campaign, have parted ways with the tactician after a bad run. 

Richards Bay have been terrible on the road, heading here without a win in six consecutive games. 

Over their previous four previous meetings, Golden Arrows have won three, while Richard Bay have managed one win. The guests are so bad that they can’t convert penalties. Their last game was nothing short of embarrassing, and I’m not sure why a huge odds have been assigned to the hosts. 

Golden Arrows head into this encounter following their decent performance against Cape Town City, which saw them concede twice and score three goals. 

The home side can’t afford to underestimate their opponent who will be ready to pounce on any chance just to return to winning ways; I’m trusting the hosts to win comfortably here for 2.30.

I also think the hosts will score before the break for 2.67.

This game will end in a win and over 1.5 goals for the hosts for 2.89.

Good luck!
