Supersport vs Richards Bay Prediction: The home side will send words to other teams in the league

The Swanky Boys will kick off their premier league campaign against Richards Bay FC at the Lucas Moripe Stadium on Saturday. The home side had a great season, finishing in the third spot, while the visitors escaped relegation.

After finishing in the third spot for the first time in eleven years, Supersport will begin their journey as they juggle three between South African trophies and a continental trophy this season. Supersport Spot had one of their best seasons, finishing below Mamelodi Sundowns and Orlando Pirates.

Supersport have also added some quality players to their squad, and we are sure they’ll give Mamelodi Sundowns a run for their money.

The visitors had a rough season despite starting well as they escaped being relegated. Richards Bay had a run of fifteen games without a victory and survived relegation by three points. Richards Bay wrapped up their season in the 13th spot, losing thirteen while sharing the spoils nine times and winning eight games.

Richards Bay's highest goal scorer last season, Sanele Barns, had just four goals which hindered their chances of challenging for the top. They are yet to provide solutions to their porous attack, and it’ll be interesting to see how they react against Supersport.

Supersport shared the spoils once and recorded a win over their last two meetings last season. Nothing has changed about Richards Bay, with no significant changes despite escaping relegation last season. On the other hand, Supersport United have reinforced after finishing third last season. They have enough quality to compete in the Premier League and the CAF Confederation Cup. We expect the home side to begin their journey with a win here for 1.64.

We expect both halves to witness less than a goal for 1.78.

A correct score of (2-0) might surface here for 7.30.

Good luck!
