Royal AM vs Marumo Gallants Prediction: The home side will get their second win of the season

Having recorded a disappointing (0-1) loss against Orlando Pirates the last time out, Royal AM will host Marumo Gallants at the Chatsworth Stadium on Sunday. The visitors haven't won a single match since the beginning of the season, while the home team will hope to secure their second win in three tries.

Royal AM (6th)

Last four matches: WWLL

Thwihli Thwahla's side were the most improved team last season when they finished third and secured the ticket to their first-ever CAF tournament.

They kicked off their season with a convincing win over Kaizer Chiefs. Royal AM defeated Chippa United (1-3) on matchday 2. On matchday 3, they bowed to their first defeat as Stellenbosch thrashed them (3-1).

As if that was not enough, they surrendered to another defeat on matchday 4 when Orlando Pirates beat them (0-1) at home.

Royal AM has had mixed results since the beginning of the season, and something has to change to replicate last season's performance.

Marumo Gallants (11th)

Last three games: DDD

The visiting side are still searching for their first win of the season with three draws in three games. They were not that bad in those games; however, they needed to enhance their performance to get any points in this encounter.

Balaban Ba Ntwa had a very rough season; however, they did make their mark by contesting in the final of the MTN FA Cup with Mamelodi Sundowns. Unfortunately, they lost (2-1) to the champions in the extra minutes.

We expect them to be a force to be reckoned with in the league this season.

Moreover, last season, they had a terrible away record with just four victories in fifteen games.
