Orlando Pirates vs Stellenbosch Prediction: The Buccaneers won’t lose three games in a row

Stellenbosch will square off against Orlando Pirates at the Orlando Stadium on Sunday. Both teams will meet for the second time in this competition, and Orlando Pirates seem to be the favourite here.

Orlando Pirates

The Buccaneers have lost three times this season, their opening game against Stellenbosch and their last two games. Despite their form this season, it has been difficult for them in their previous three games in all competitions. After coming from a goal down to snatch all the points in the MTN 8 Cup first leg, they lost on the road to Jwaneng Galaxy in the CAF Champions League while bowing to (0-1) home defeat against Mamelodi Sundowns.

The Buccaneers are one of the best-attacking teams in the division, and we are confident they’ll bounce back here.

Stellenbosch

The Stellies have had a poor start to the season, with three victories and five defeats while sharing the spoils once. Stellenbosch have failed to win any of their last four games in all competitions. Stellenbosch head here after their (0-2) defeat at home to Moroka Swallows. For the third time in four games, Stellenbosch were reduced to ten men, and it’s increasingly becoming a huge concern for the tactician Steve Barker.

Expert Betting Tips

Over their previous thirteen meetings, Orlando Pirates have won seven while Stellenbosch have recorded two victories and four games ending in a share of the spoils. Stellenbosch scored first in their first leg even though they were reduced to ten men. Orlando Pirates then fought back to get the winner in the 95th minute, having levelled in the 66th minute. The Stells have struggled in their last four games, losing three of their previous four. On the other hand, Orlando Pirates have struggled in their last two games. The Buccaneers can’t afford to lose three games in a row, and we are trusting them to bounce back here for 1.75.

We expect the Buccaneers to get the first goal here for 1.75.
