Kaizer Chiefs vs Orlando Pirates Prediction: The visitors are well-positioned for all the points here

Kaizer Chiefs will lock horns with Orlando Pirates in the Soweto Derby at the FNB Stadium on Saturday. Football lovers in South Africa will converge at the First National Bank Stadium to witness a fierce game between both sides as they fight for three points. 

Kaizer Chiefs (5th)

Last five games: LLWDL

The Amakhosi are one of the worst-coached sides in the league in recent games. Kaizer Chiefs have moved from being one of the three best sides in the division to a regular team. They have managed just a win over their last six games scoring in two of those fixtures. After failing to win against TS Galaxy despite playing against ten men, Kaizer Chiefs could not take advantage as it ended in a goalless draw. The result was followed by one of their worst defeats in recent games as they went from being (2-1) up to losing the game at home. Golden Arrows scored twice in the second half to cancel Kaizer Chiefs’ lead as the visitors snatched all the points. 

Kaizer Chiefs have won four, drawn two, and lost four in the last ten home matches. 

Orlando Pirates (3rd)

Last five games: WWWLW

The Buccaneers have worked their way up from midtable to the verge of breaking into the top two within the space of a few weeks, courtesy of a consistent turn of results where they recorded four wins in their last five games in the Premiership, finding the net thirteen times while only conceding four goals.

Orlando Pirates have won back-to-back since their defeat against Mamelodi Sundowns and their more recent victory was against Maritzburg United at home. They scored two goals in both halves before a consolation goal from the visitors. 

Orlando Pirates have won three, drawn twice and lost four in the last eight away matches.
