Richards Bay vs Orlando Pirates Prediction: The Buccaneers will avenge their recent defeat against the home team

Richards Bay will strive for a back-to-back win when they host Orlando Pirates at the King Zwelithini Stadium on Saturday. The Buccaneers have turned their fortunes around with three undefeated runs, while the host head here with their second victory of the season on their ground.

Richards Bay (15th)

Last five games: DLLLW

After five games without a breakthrough, Kaizer Chiefs secured maximum points against Cape Town Spurs. In fact, they were lucky to have come off with three points as the visitors missed from the spot in the final few seconds of the game.

The home side have won twice in their last twelve games in the league, as they sit in 15th place on the table. Richards Bay have won a game, drawn once, and lost five times on their ground this season.

Orlando Pirates (7th)

Last five games: DDLWW

Jubilations in the camp of Orlando Pirates as they continue their resurgence in the division. They have now won back-to-back games against tougher opponents as they moved to seventh spot on the log. The Buccaneers came out of the Soweto Derby unhurt, as evidenced by Makgopa scoring the only goal that won them the maximum points.

The result ended a four-game winless streak on the road in the league for the Buccaneers, who started the week in 13th place in the standings after eight games played.

The Buccaneers have managed one win on the road this season but remain as dangerous as ever before and can hurt any side, especially against Richards Bayside, who have been poor of late.
