Last season’s position: 6th
The Pirates didn’t have a great season considering the quality of their squad, they failed to qualify for the CAF Confederation tournament. Although they did play against RSB Berkane in the finals of the CAF confederation cup where they lost on penalties to the Moroccan-based team.
The promising thing this season is that the Pirates moved away from co-coaching and appointed a leader in Riveiro, who didn’t do badly in his previous job in Finland where he was in charge of FC Inter Turku.
Pirates lost twice in the previous fifteen home games with seven wins and six draws.
Moroka Swallows
Last season's position: 15th
The visitors were one of the most poorly organized in the previous season when they finished second to last. They were so bad they only won four games in thirty matches.
They survived the division because of their victory against the University of Pretoria in the relegation/promotion playoffs.
In the previous fifteen away games, they won two, drawn eight and lost five.
Expert Betting Tips
The last nineteen games between both teams have ended in seven wins for Orlando Pirates, seven draws and five wins for Moroka Swallows.
Orlando Pirates head into the new season with a strong team after bolstering their squad with decent players such as Tapelo Xoki, Nkosinathi Sibisi Evidence Makgopa, Bienvenu Eva Nga and Miguel Timm. We are trusting them with a win for 1.75.
