Golden Arrows vs Supersport United Prediction: Both teams are not reliable

Golden Arrows vs Supersport United will square it off at Mpumalanga Stadium in round six of the South Africa Premier League. The two teams settled for a 2-2 draw in their last meeting. Will there be a winner in this one?

Golden Arrows will look to return to winning ways following a defeat to Chippa United last time out. Siphelo Baloni and Andile Jali’s strikes were the difference in that game. In the meantime, Golden Arrows have lost their last four matches, the first three being against Magesi, Sekhukhune, and Mamelodi Sundowns. Golden Arrows have accumulated only six points from their first five matches in the league standings. In those matches, Golden Arrows scored four goals while conceding five, leaving them seated 10th in the standings. 

Supersport United's last league encounter was against Kaizer Chiefs, and they secured a 1-0 win. In that encounter, Tashreeq Morris’ strike was the difference in the first half, securing maximum points for Supersport United. However, prior encounters to that win saw this team lose three consecutive games against Cape Town City, Kaizer Chiefs, and Orlando Pirates. In the league, Supersport United sit in 8th place with seven points from six matches. 

I will bet on goals in this game, looking at how things have ended in the past between these sides. While the two teams' defenses are nothing to write home about, we can expect both teams to concede goals. Also, with Gold Arrows at home, I expect them to win here, ending their consecutive defeats.
