Sekhukhune United FC vs Richards Bay FC: Prediction and odds on the Match on 04 November 2025

Sekhukhune United FC will hope to bounce back from their recent woes when they lock horns against Richards Bay FC at the Peter Mokaba Stadium on Tuesday. For Sekhunkhune United, a win is a must for them, having gone four games without a breakthrough in all competitions. The guests, on the other hand, will be keen to stand in their way in this highly competitive encounter.

Last five games: WWDLL

For the second time in the Betway Premiership, Babina Noko's team were unable to win a game. Sekhukhune United were stunned yet again, as they were beaten by the newly promoted Siwelele FC. This game started off with both sides having few or no chances at halftime. It went on for a long time, and in the 76th minute, Siwelele FC broke the deadlock against a more organised attack. Four minutes later, Sekhukhune United got the opportunity to level; however, Makgalwa fired blank. It's shocking to see the sort of football Sekhunkhune United play these days, and if care isn’t taken, they might lose all the points they accumulated at the start of the season. 

Although they have been below par lately, Sekhunkhune United are still one of the best teams in the league, and no team has won more games than Sekhunkhune United in the Betway Premiership.

Babina Noko's team were the most consistent in the division, until their recent woes. In the Betway Premiership, they sit in second spot on the standings. They have also found the back of the net thirteen times while conceding five goals.

Eric Tinkler’s men have won three and drawn twice at home this season.

Last five games: WWLLD

The Natal Rich Boys failed to win for the third consecutive Betway Premiership games as they settled for a share of the spoils on the road. Richards Bay didn’t start well as they conceded after thirty-one minutes of play, with Ramabu scoring for the hosts. They were totally outplayed at the break as Richards Bay couldn’t operate the way they’d have loved to. The second half was more balanced, and this time Richards Bay were rewarded with a spotkick. In the 86th minute, Mhango levelled for the guests. 

Richards Bay accumulated twelve points from a combined thirty, scoring eight goals while conceding twelve. The Natal Rich Boys are back in twelfth place, three points above the relegation zone, and they’ll be keen to get something away from this game. 

Richards Bay have won once, drawn two games, and lost three matches across their previous six away games.

Richards Bay FC have been inconsistent lately, having gone three games without a breakthrough. Meanwhile, Sekhukhune United FC have actually been below par in recent games, losing three and sharing the spoils once in all competitions. 

Richards Bay FC were fortunate to come away with a point in their last game, and I think they’ll be tested again tomorrow.
