Orlando Pirates vs Amazulu FC Prediction: Except the inevitable happens, Pirates will run riot here

On Friday, the Buccaneers will face off against Amazulu FC in what seems to be an easy game at the Orlando Stadium. Orlando Pirates head with four consecutive victories in the league, and they will be determined to leapfrog Mamelodi Sundowns at the top of the log.

The Buccaneers continued their fine form to the campaign with a comfortable (2-0) victory over Supersport United on their ground. This was after their slim (0-1) win over Richards Bay on the road. Orlando Pirates scored in both halves in what seemed to be a total domination against their guests. 

Orlando Pirates have now scored eight times this campaign while conceding once. Jose Riveiro's men presently sit in the second spot on the log, winning four consecutive matches. 

The Buccaneers have not lost on their home ground in the league since June, and they'll be determined to maintain their momentum here. 

Last three games: LLL

Arthur Zwane's men will play their league game since the defeat against Stellenbosch in the Carling Cup. Amazulu FC suffered a defeat against Marumo Gallants on the road just before their recent cup game, conceding once without responding. Amazulu have been below par this season, losing all four games in all competitions. They had to sack Pablo Franco and install Arthur Zwane. Amazulu have now conceded six times while scoring twice, securing zero points from nine games. 

Amazulu have lost back-to-back games on the road this season. 

Over their previous twenty meetings, Orlando Pirates have recorded twelve wins and eight games ending in a tie. The Buccaneers have been on another level this campaign. They have scored eight and conceded twice in four starts already. Orlando Pirates have been playing with great enthusiasm, and after watching them against Supersport United, I think Amazulu might be in for a long ride here.

Orlando Pirates always try to suffocate their opponent, especially on their home ground, from the start to the end; we expect them to at least get a goal before the break for 1.75.

Amazulu stands no chance here except for the inevitable, which happens: bet on a home win and over 1.5 goals for 1.89.

This game will produce more than two goals for 2.35.

Good luck!
