Chippa United v Richards Bay FC
Chippa United host Richards Bay FC at the Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium on Saturday.
The hosts sit 14th with 15 points, aiming to extend their recent upturn after a 2-0 win over Durban City. Meanwhile, Richards Bay occupy 9th with 19 points, seeking to maintain their unbeaten streak in five league games.
Both sides favour structured, cautious football, reflected in numerous low-scoring encounters this season.
Chippa’s home form and recent defensive solidity give them a slight edge, though Richards Bay’s resilience makes a tight contest likely.
Historical results and current form suggest a hard-fought match, with a draw a plausible outcome.
Siwelele, 11th on 17 points, struggle for goals and consistency, with only one away win all season and a pragmatic counter-attacking style under Lehlohonolo Seema.
Historical encounters favour the hosts, who won the last meeting 1-0.
Sekhukhune United v Orbit College
Sekhukhune United host Orbit College at Makhulong Stadium on Sunday.
The hosts sit fifth with 29 points, riding the momentum of consecutive 1-0 wins, including a recent victory over TS Galaxy, and have conceded just 10 goals this season.
Orbit College, in contrast, struggle in 15th place with 14 points and a seven-game winless streak, conceding 30 goals in 17 matches.
This is only the second meeting between the sides, with Sekhukhune winning the first 3-0. With a solid defensive record and home advantage, Sekhukhune United are favorites, while Orbit College will need to overcome both form and defensive vulnerabilities to challenge them.
