Orlando Pirates vs Marumo Gallants FC Prediction & Betting Tips - Premier Soccer League
by Nella Wagah in Premier Soccer League Predictions
Orlando Pirates will return to Premier Soccer League action on Tuesday when they host Marumo Gallants. In this game against 12th placed Marumo Gallants, second placed Pirates will be keen on a return to winning ways. Read below for our prediction of the match.
Ahead of this game, Pirates are on a three-match winless run. In their last league game, they suffered a 1-0 home loss to Stellenbosch. Their last two matches were in the Champions League, and both ended in draws.
First they played to a 0-0 draw with Al Ahly then 1-1 against Stade d’Abidjan. The hosts will be pressed to improve on their scoring form, having netted once in three games.
Marumo Gallants are smarting from a 1-0 loss away to Polokwane City. That was their third loss in the last six matches and they’ll head into this game as underdogs.
With five defeats in nine league matches, Marumo Gallants’ league campaign hasn’t really picked up. This start to the season has left them just two points above the relegation zone, while they don’t have a very strong scoring run.
Gallants scored more than a goal just once in the last five matches. This match will be the seventh in the league between the teams and Gallants have never beaten Pirates.
