We take a look at the 5 DSTV Premiership matches taking place on Friday and Saturday and suggest a bet in each game.
FRIDAY
SuperSport United v TS Galaxy – Click here to bet
SuperSport United are currently 3rd on the log, but they have now gone 2 games without a victory after drawing away to Chippa United and losing to Orlando Pirates on the road.
They face a TS Galaxy side that currently sits 7th and saw a 5 match undefeated streak ended when they went down 2-1 at home to Maritzburg United last time out.
TS Galaxy beat SuperSport United 2-0 in the reverse fixture, but I am expecting SuperSport to shake off their recent loss of form and to grab the 3 points.
Suggested Bet: SuperSport United win at 5/6
SATURDAY
Richards Bay v Golden Arrows – Click here to bet
Richards Bay are in absolute free fall and while they currently sit 6th on the table they have lost 6 matches in a row and haven’t won in their last 8. They were beaten 2-0 at home by Orlando Pirates last time out and they have only taken 1 point from the last 15 they have played for at home.
Golden Arrows are 10th on the log, but moving upward with 2 victories and a draw in their last 4 starts. Last time out they drew 0-0 at home to Sekhukhune and although Richards Bay are the home side I am struggling to see how they are favourites here and I am going to back Arrows for the win
Suggested Bet: Golden Arrows win at 15/8

Chippa United v Orlando Pirates – Click here to bet
Chippa United are currently 14th on the log with just 1 win in their last 10 starts. They are coming off back-to-back 1-1 draws at home to SuperSport United and away at Sekhukhune.
Orlando Pirates are 2nd on the log with 4 wins in their last 5 starts. They won their last 3 on the trot including beating Richards Bay 2-0 on the road last time out.
Chippa United beat Orlando Pirates 1-0 on the road in the reverse fixture, but Pirates won this fixture 3-1 last season and I am happy to back an in form Pirates team to grab the 3 points.
Suggested Bet: Orlando Pirates win at 17/20
Sekhukhune v Maritzburg United – Click here to bet
Sekhukhune are currently 9th on the table and without a win in their last 4 starts. They are coming off back-to-back draws away to Arrows and at home to Chippa United. Sekhukhune have only scored 1 goal in their last 4 matches.
They play Maritzburg United who are second from bottom of the table and got a much needed 3 points last time out when they beat TS Galaxy 2-1 on the road. That broke a run of 6 matches during which time they had only taken 1 point.
Both teams have found the back of the net in 5 out of Maritzburg United’s last 6 games and that is the trend I am going to bet continues.
Suggested Bet: Both teams to score, YES, at 13/10
Kaizer Chiefs v Marumo Gallants – Click here to bet
Kaizer Chiefs are currently 4th on the log and they have won their last 4 matches in succession including beating Stellenbosch 2-1 at home last time out.
They face a Marumo Gallants side that is sitting bottom of the table, but are undefeated in their last 4 games and beat Royal AM 3-1 at home in their last match. Their last away game was a 2-2 draw at Cape Town City.
These sides played to a 1-1 draw at Marumo Gallants earlier in the season and Chiefs edged this fixture 1-0 last season.
There have only been a total of 3 goals in the last 3 meetings between the sides and I am going to back Kaizer Chiefs to edge a close one here and win by exactly 1 goal.
Suggested Bet: Handicap, Kaizer Chiefs -1 the draw at 22/10
