Marumo Gallants FC vs Richards Bay Prediction & Betting Tips - Premier Soccer League
by Daniel Ngulu in Premier Soccer League Predictions
Marumo Gallants have a huge task in their ambition to rise from the lower reaches of the premier Soccer League in South Africa when they take on ambitious Richards Bay. Winless in four matches, Marumo go into this game placed 15th with 14 points, while Richards Bay have posted 26 points so far, in third place. A late Ranga Chivaviro goal in their last outing ensured Marumo avoided a fourth straight loss as they drew 1-1 with Stellenbosch. They haven’t managed a clean sheet in their last five league games and they only remain out of the automatic relegation spot on goal difference. Marumo have failed to score in two of the last four matches and three of their last five games have produced under 2.5 goals. Their poor run in the season has coincided with unimpressive performances at home in the league; they have one win only in their last 12 home league matches. However, they have also lost only once in the 12, with most of their home games ending in draws. Eight of their last 10 home league matches have ended in under 2.5 goals and they’ve failed to score in half of the 10 home games.
Richards Bay, on the other hand, will be looking to bounce back from their first defeat in 10 league matches. They understandably lost 2-0 to league leaders Mamelodi Sundowns in their last game but they have a foundation of three clean sheets in five matches coming into this game. They will look to improve on their scoring form though, having failed to hit the back of the net in half of their last eight matches. With eight goals only conceded in the league, Richards Bay are the joint second-best in defence and will hope this reflects here. They have conceded more than a goal in just two of the last 17 matches and though they come here unbeaten in their last five away matches, they drew the last two. Away from home this season, Richards Bay have one loss and four wins in the seven league games. They have three clean sheets in the last four away games.
