Golden Arrows 5/4
FS Stars 21/10
Draw 21/10
Golden Arrows came away with their first win of the 2013/14 campaign on Sunday afternoon, albeit to fellow strugglers Polokwane City.
It nonetheless provides them with more hope than their previous three fixtures have.
They’re another team ruined by the crazed Ertugral, and it seems the after effects are lingering.
However, it was good to see long term servant Abraham Khuboni score on the weekend, showing them there is light somewhere down the end of the tunnel.
How long that tunnel is, remains to be seen.
Free State Stars seem to have got over their hiding to Supersport United, with two notable draws to Celtic and a fancied Platinum Stars of late.
This may be a good chance to keep the good times rolling for Stars, with this clash being by far their easiest of their season thus far.
Betting Prediction: Free State Stars
Travelling in this dogged league is never easy for mid to lower league sides, so it’s by no means a walk in the park. But the 21/10 odds make enough appeal for me, so that’s the tip.
