THE PREDICTION

These two will both be frustrated with their start to the season but for different reasons. Marumo Gallants went down 2-0 at Baroka on the opening day with the Gallants managing 73% of the ball but failing to trouble their opponents. Orlando Pirates, on the other hand, led 2-1 at home to Stellenbosch but a red card and the concession of an equaliser means they gave up two crucial opening day points. Goals will be expected given the visitors’ attacking capabilities whilst the hosts dominated the play.
