Polokwane City vs Orlando Pirates Prediction: The visitors will likely secure the maximum points

Polokwane City will face off against Orlando Pirates on Saturday at the New Peter Mokaba Stadium. The home side have been a menace to top sides in the division this season, and the visitors must be at their best to get anything away from the hosts.

The Riseandshine Boys returned to winning ways after their (0-0) stalemate on the road against a solid Mamelodi Sundowns side. Polokwane City scored just once to amass the maximum points against Moroka Swallows. They are now unbeaten in their last three games in the division, winning two and sharing the spoils once. 

Polokwane City are not doing bad for a side that just won promotion last season, with four six, six stalemates, and five defeats. Polokwane City have scored thirteen and conceded fourteen times this season. The Orange Boys have also won three, drawn three, and lost three on the road this season.

The Buccaneers ended their back-to-back losses with a share of the spoils against Mamelodi Sundowns. Orlando Pirates played with enthusiasm and determination after coming from a goal down to split points with ten men. Immediately after the victory, Orlando Pirates advanced to the South African FA Cup quarterfinals with a (0-6) win over their opponent on the road. Orlando Pirates have a long way to go in their attempt to play continental football next season. They are presently out of the race to win the PSL as they trail the league leaders with fifteen whooping points. 

Orlando Pirates have won two, drawn four and lost three games away from home this season.

In the nineteen games played, Pirates have emerged winners on eight occasions while Polokwane City have recorded three wins with eight encounters ending in a stalemate. Polokwane City always play with passion when they meet top teams. But they’ll face a more determined opponent in Orlando Pirates tomorrow. The Buccaneers are ready to take the second half of the season by storm, and after their entertaining victory over their recent opponent, we think they’ll likely get the maximum points here; bet on an away win or draw and over 1.5 goals for 1.89.

We expect both teams to settle for a halftime draw for 1.94.

The visitors will likely get the first goal here for 1.65.

Good luck!
