Golden Arrows vs Royal AM Prediction: Poor Arrows to take a point in this game

Mpumalanga Stadium will be the venue for this 25 South Africa Premier League game between Golden Arrows and Royal AM. In their last meeting, Royal AM were victorious at home in a 1-0 encounter. Which of the sides wins here?

Golden Arrows were thrashed last time against Orlando Pirates, a 7-1 complete rioting. Lungelo Nguse scored the Golden Arrows consolation goal in that game, coming in the 77th minute. However, it is worth noting that Golden Arrows went three consecutive matches without a defeat in prior encounters to that defeat, drawing Supersport United, while they defeated both Richards Bay and Polokwane. So far this season, Golden Arrows have accumulated 30 points from 23 matches, positioning them 9th in the standings.

Royal AM got back to winning ways in their last game against Polokwane, securing a hard-fought 3-2. The first half ended goalless in that game, but goals from Sedwyn George, Sikhethele Wandile, and Zukile Mkhize in the second half were good enough to hand Royal AM a win. In the meantime, a look at Royal AM's last five games did see them lose three, coming against Sekhukhune, Stellenbosch, and TS Galaxy, with one other match ending in a 2-0 win over Cape Town City.

Royal AM won three in the last five games between these sides, while Golden Arrows failed to secure a single win. However, two others ended in draws at full-time. Royal AM scored nine goals in those matches, while Golden Arrows scored five.

These two sides have been struggling in recent games, and looking at their season performance, there is little difference between them. While I do not see a clear winner, a draw seems like the best result. Also, while the matches between these sides have always ended with goals, I do not expect this one to be different.
